I located this tri-folded brochure from Ojala in some of my dad's things. He never bought an Ojala rig, but wanted one.
I thought it might be of interest to folks. I am guessing it is from the '60s or '70s. My apologies for the creases showing, but it was folded up in a drawer for a long time. Hope these are of use to someone. God Bless, Marc

My pleasure Skeeter's Friend (Dobe Grant). :) Red, I knew you'd have an idea of when Arvo moved to the NW, and thank you for that.

My dad and I always kept our eyes peeled for nice or collectible holsters. The leather on the Arvo Ojala holsters we found was usually split or cracked badly. We always assumed it had to do with how the leather was tanned, or perhaps the lack of natural oils put back in during production. The similar looking Bianchi fast draw rigs always seem to age very well, and I don't think I have seen one cracked up.

God Bless, Marc
