I have been trying to find one of those for month's now with no luck. I have one about like yours on the hook but ,like always,the case is gone.
Bobbys grand dad kept a set like that on his desk. Bobby said they are very rare. Great looking set man.

This set came up on ebay as a "Buy It Now/Make An Offer". I thought the set with the case would be rare so I jumped on it. Made an offer and they accepted.

Out of the 4 or 5 I have saw,1 had a case but it was newer thin yours and I'm not sure if it was the right case.
There is a great pic of that same set in Bobbys book. Neat find and very cool to have.
