Anyone know who can restore a Geib case for me? Or at least repair a missing latch?

Try a luggage repair shop in your area. That's where I had mine repaired many years ago.

A quick search shows this place, possibly near you:
Atlanta Luggage Repair
900 Mansell Rd Ste 12
Roswell, GA 30076-4803
Phone: (770) 649-1942

I echo, echo, echo Brad's advice. I took a Fingertip case that was in great shape except for the handle to a Cleveland luggage store. They did a fantastic job. They had the exact right 50 year old handle, and they only charged $25! Perfect job! Cheaper than if I bought the handle from a supplier and installed it myself.

I'll give that a shot. I didn't think those guys would have parts for anything this old!
