Some one also told me they saw this in the 1911 catalog too. Can anyone shed some light? Thanks.

I don't know anything about it, but it is really cool. Nice find.

 

[$TAKE HOR$E]

Should be able to get full retail even in this market if you decide to sell....:grin:

That is AWESOME.


I wish case makers today would do retro cases like this.


I'll have to ask John, surely he'd be willing.

I would imagine a bit more rgan retail.

Very cool! Anyone know what 1894 $3.50 would be in today's dollars?

About $400.

Ha, a fake. If you look at the picture from the page the case is Black and White while the case you have is a tan color.

I however am a tan case fan and willing to give you $25.00 for the case and the book.:thumbup:

I have a 26-1/2 that would look real nice in that case, so it is worth $250 to me if you want to sell it. I would like a copy of the original advertisement also.

I just saw you have your own 26-1/2 to go in it in your other thread.
