Yes, sorry, picked up a 1964 swiss/austrian/german one that looks the part - wanted to see if it fitted an original size cover. If not I'll just blacken up the cover it came with and it will have to do.
Ah, the 60's Austrian ones. Yup, they will fit the covers, but it can be a bloody tight fit. If so, you're better going for the open-backed cover than the solid-backed one, as its easier to stretch the leather to make it fit.
