INDICATOR
#1: FINISHED EDGES
From my reserach it appears ALL canvas pouches, whether
they are original or replicas, have a finished edge at the top of each
pocket. A finished edge refers to the material being folded over and
sewn. ALL leather pouches have a raw edge; the leather is simply cut
at the top of the pocket and is not finished in any way. The ANH screen
captures below clearly show the top edge of the pocket of the screen
used pouches has a finished edge like the canvas pouches.
