That's Right, Mr. Jeffery Spoor Is Back in business!
Mostly all of you already know or have heard of the quality of his cases. Unfortunately by the time I started playing harmonica, Jeff had stopped making cases. But I had always heard his name mentioned whenever the subject of quality cases came up. So when I heard he was starting up again, I jumped on the opportunity to get one.
I actually ended up getting a 7 Harp Case and a 2 Harp case from Jeff. The 2 Harp case isn't something Jeff offers or had ever made before, but I wanted something that was about the size of a Leather Wallet that I could easily fit in a Pocket. Something classy that would last that I could use to grab a few harps and go. So Jeff gave me a few different dimensions of what a 2 and 3 harp case would look like in different slot orientations and I ended up going with a small 2 case. A 3 case was just a little too big for a pocket. Jeff was very accommodating and He was absolutely great to do business with.
These all leather cases that Jeff makes are Top Notch. This is true craftsmanship. They are not just mass produced leather cases. Nor are they hand made leather cases from an amateur. Jeff was a Saddle maker for many years and truly knows the leather craft. I am beyond impressed with the quality, function, and look of these cases. And as anyone who owns any good leather products knows, these will last a lifetime.
I have seen many leather harp cases online. My advice, if your thinking of buying one of these, don't be fooled into thinking they are in the same league as Spoor Cases. I really can't Say enough about these cases. They really are Top Notch. Do yourself a favor and check them out.
I can't post any pictures at the moment, but Jeff has pictures of my cases and others on his facebook page.
He also has a new Website up and running already.

Thanks for the heads up on this, Killa. I've had a couple of Jeff's pocket pouches for years and wished I could get one or two more. Now I can! By the way, two of the single pocket pouches would fit in your pocket just fine. Just don't try to stuff your keys or phone in the same pocket. Would love to see a picture of your double pouch sometime if you get a chance although the hassle of loading pictures on this website is one of its biggest drawbacks. (IMO)

As you see the 2 harp case fits right in a back pocket. It fits all the way in ofcourse, i just had it sticking out for the photo.
I hope these can accurately convey the quality to you. These are made of, double thick, very high quality leather. Beautifully stained and finished. The stitching is incredible. I couldnt be happier with them.

I think I must have had one of his last 14 cases, before the fire, it is a treasured possession and is closely guarded
Very glad he is back

Case looks really good. Do you find it makes the harps smell like leather?

Funny story. Jeff sent me a picture of two custom chrom. cases. Said "I made these for a guy who makes nice custom wooded cover plates for 270's."
I sent him back a picture of the Chrom I got from you and said "Like these." lol.
The Double case is great! As is the 7 case. They are fantastic cases. I really cant say enough about em.
And they are pretty tough. I was afraid they would be all scarred up by now ... because im real rough on stuff. But they are still brand new looking.
