Gruen Authority

Just my speculative opinion, but leaving aside the patent date, it would surprise me if this leatherette box didn't predate the plastic version. The trend at the time was away from leatherette boxes like this and towards plastic, not the other way around. And it's possible that it could have been produced before a patent was even applied for. I don't know how unusual that would be, but it's certainly possible.
