Looks like Holden made everything except saddles.

Ah Dave, you know they made saddles lol, the company was founded in 1856 as a saddlery manufacturer after all.

How old would that make it Inni?

It has to be older than 1916 and possibly as old as 1885. My guess is around the 1910-16 mark but is purely a guess. I say this because I feel it was for use in auto upholstery.
It's a cool piece of history to have in my collection.

Wow, cool.

We used to do the same and they had a loop of film and for some strange reason all I can remember of it was the " Sandpiper " Gemini ad!

Unlike you thatotherguy, all that stuff is gone.

Any chance of a pic sometime? Ta.

Bugger of the thing to photograph. Took me quite a bit of time to find the bugger also.
Anyway, a real old part of Holden history.
