Object
Indy's Holster
Indiana Jones's leather holster, used to secure his revolver at his hip. Appears in two key contexts: (1) In the cabin's morning light, Indy fastens the holster around his waist after engines stop, pairing it with his whip and jacket before heading out to investigate (Marion watches from the bed); (2) During a biplane attack, Short Round pulls the holster from Indy's bag, removes the pistol, fires wildly at attackers, and discards the spent weapon. Sturdy leather construction holds the revolver securely, marking Indy's transition between vulnerable respite and armed readiness.
