Here we have a 1950s Lifton, four-latch case for archtop and acoustic guitars.  It fit our L-7 quite nicely and could work for an L-5 or a J-200.  Check measurements before purchasing!

The case had some latch parts replaced prior to arrival here.  The lower bout area and the headstock area needed to be glued as the areas had separations.  It feels sturdy now.  Original handle intact.  No internal label.  Gibson label on the outside missing one mounting pin.
