I see on the net a number of various dust covers for the C64. However I do not see anything for the C128 nor for the C128D keyboard. Were there any made? Does anyone has pictures or references?
Here some of the pictures for C64.

However I do not see anything for the C128 nor for the C128D keyboard. Were there any made? I have a dark brown, vinyl cover for the flat C128. And somewhere in the house, I have the more-preferred, fabric cover for the flat C128. Why preferred? Because you could cover a just shut-down C128, and the C128's internal heat would still dissipate through the thin fabric.

I have both a plastic one (with a clip-on hinge to open without completely removing it) and a fabric one.
You can buy the fabric one from Vesalia, the plastic one sometimes appear on eBay (there's one on auction right now, look for this item #: 151875856851)

I saw one from Germany. I wish they had the real picture of the item not a stock image. But sounds tempting anyway.

And just to complete this thread. I was able to get a faux leather cover for the C64C, which seems to work pretty well for the C128D keyboard.

In the '80 we had a plactic dust cover for our C128D keyboard. It broke and we did it away; Just like a did trow away 5 years ago my Commodore 1901 screen after smoke came out. in those days... Blame me

Just to mention that Protovision is now selling that plastic keyboard cover for the C128D.
