This guy "challenges anyone to find a case with the same design and color"

I wonder what the prize for winning is...

It's anyone guess really, just like the substance that the seller is "on".

And yet there's no pictures of the outside of the case...

Which is why it’s such a “challenge” hahaha

Truly a rare find, although the place for the second mouthpiece could be a better fit, as well as the place for the top joint. What really makes it a rare piece though is that it's a Boosey and Hawkes in the Ohler/German system (cleverly disguised as a Boehm).

I just found an old Alexandre in the same kind of case on shopgoodwill.

Design and color - pfffff - that's easy.
How about exact same smell?

Nothing like the scent of half-century old saliva, fungus, and viruses to get you going in the morning.

I think I have effectively reduced my lifespan by several years from inhaling so much instrument case air.
