The decals are pretty widely available-I did a google search and found them. I noticed that ebay also had them. I read on McCullom's site that you can use shoe polish to restore a case that just needs to be shined up, but this one was pretty bunged up (lots of duct tape, so I bought an ultra-seude in Joanne's home decorator fabrics section and stripped it down. Took me on a very intense search to find split-rivets to re attach the hardware. . .not widely available! There is a great site for restoration- http://www.sew2go.com/adfwrestoration.htm
All sorts of info on the internet.
