Saw this Martin branded ABS soprano case on eBay. I've never seen one like this before. Was this a case that Martin once offered? If so, when?

It looks like one of those fancy bicycle seats. : )

Since the Martin tag is on it, they must have authorized it.

EDIT: Searching for "Martin soprano cases" got me Martin ukes - no Martin cases.

Elderly has them for sale. These cases have been around for many years.

I think that modern 3s and 5s came with this case. 2s and "lower" came with gig bags.
