Don't you think that the one used here, on this movie is quite similar in style to the one still unidentified used by Peter? What do you think?

Only that Peter's one has some holes in the lid. :love

PS: A new photo I just found out:

This one looks much better, but holes seems painted and Peter's ones seems a metal hole reinforcers.

I think they are similar, but alas not the same.

There's a similar problem with one of the bandoliers used on the chief jawa. This jawa used a bandolier that is very similar to the Boer War bandolier but slightly different. Considering the ubiquity of many of these bandoliers, such as the Enfield 303 and the German Mauser that can be found still today in fairly good quantity on ebay, I can't help but wonder if the ammo belt on the Peter Diamond tusken raider and the bandolier on the jawa might have been made by the prop shop or something since no duplicates of them have been found...?

Guys, dont get excited, but I think I found them:

WW1 Turkish Waist Ammunition Bandolier:

It is not clearly the same, but we are going in the right direction. What do you think?

Nice find ! Plus I think that's Alec Guinness in the new photo you found, so some Obi-Wan in this Thread too.

Yes, that movie had an incredible cast. Now that I know what I am looking, I will refine my search. Planning to look for them on specialized forums.:love
