WHEN YOU CONSIGN WITH US, YOU GAIN A PARTNER WHOSE BEST INTEREST IS IN LOOKING OUT FOR YOUR BEST INTERESTS!

For over 25 years we have been bringing fine arms collections to auction and one of the things we hear most often is "I don't want to leave my family with this burden". The good news is, you don't have to.

Make Amoskeag part of your estate planning and put your mind at ease.

We have worked with countless estates and trusts over the years to market lifelong collections. We have witnessed firsthand the problems that can, and often do, arise when there is a lack of estate planning.

No collector wants to part with their collection and often sell prematurely just so they can oversee the process. With a proper estate plan, you can keep your collection and have peace of mind at the same time.

We understand that the decision to sell your cherished collection is a very personal and emotional one for many. The negotiation and agreement to sell your collection does not need to be made by your heirs. You can play a direct role in how your collection is presented, we would be happy to accommodate any special requests and put it all in writing so your family has at the least, a plan, or if you choose, we can sign the consignment agreement to take effect upon your passing.

Estate planning is often an uncomfortable subject, being proactive and making a solid plan can add a lot of comfort to your twilight years when peace of mind is so very valuable.

If you would like to learn more about how to incorporate Amoskeag Auction into your estate planning, please call our offices and we would be happy to discuss your different options.

All hardware shows a pleasant mild patina overall and the stock features a scant left-side cheekpiece and the buttstock is quite dainty overall. Equipped with double set triggers, the lock appears to be single-acting though set trigger engagement may require some adjustment as the hammer sometimes slips. There are three vacant drilled holes along the top barrel flat, likely for mounting a long elaborate leaf sight during the period, and the rifle is currently sighted with a semi-buckhorn fine v-notch rear sight and German silver blade front sight. This is a lovely heavy sporting rifle by this talented and well-regarded Pennsylvania gunmaker and engraver. (13D11453-16) {ANTIQUE} (2000/3000)

155. VERY RARE PUBLISHED COLT SECOND GENERATION NONSTANDARD PRODUCTION MODEL SINGLE ACTION ARMY REVOLVER

serial #66329SA, 45 Colt, 7 1/2” barrel with a bright excellent bore. This is a very interesting 1974made revolver pictured and described on pages 71 and 72 of the “Colt Single-Action Revolver Handbook 1955-1975” by Don Wilkerson. This revolver was assembled using leftover commemorative series parts, namely the cylinder is from the Peacemaker Centennial model with its beveled front and flute edges while the triggerguard and backstrap are from the NRA commemorative model; the barrel is standard production. The book notes that no attempt was made to re number the parts with the cylinder numbered “222”, the backstrap extensively re-stamped and overstruck only leaving an “SA” legible, the triggerguard numbered “NRA4171” and the grips numbered “296”. While a factory letter is not included, the book does reference it and indicates the revolver shipped on April 10, 1974 with seven other revolvers along with the notation “in checking factory records and production, we found that the commemorative cylinder and NRA triggerguard evidently left the factory in the above serial numbered gun”. The revolver remains in excellent near-new condition retaining 99% original bright nickel finish showing a few tiny freckles along the backstrap and a few small areas of subtle clouding under bright light, the cylinder with no turn line. All markings remain crisp and the smooth walnut grips are excellent. The revolver includes its original light woodgrain box with Styrofoam inserts that rate very good, with one side flap missing and the remaining end flaps rather tender and showing tape repairs. The end label is mostly intact and matching, the “32” in the serial number having been rewritten in pen due to the area being flaked from some old tape in the past. A 1985 copyright manual and some other pamphlets are also included along with a copy of the book “Colt Single-Action Revolver Handbook 1955-1975” by Wilkerson. This is a wonderful and interesting find for the advanced Single Action Army collector. (13B11695-34) {C&R} (3500/5000)

Both magazines show “(Eagle) / 359” Waffenamts and a few areas of light to perhaps moderate oxidation, one magazine is an earlier variant numbered to pistol “4598j” on the floorplate. The back side of the holster shows maker code “jln” over “1943” date and “(Eagle) / WaA145” and the holster rates very good showing a very old application of green and tan enamel paint that exhibits moderate flaking along with some scuffs and expected edge wear. The inside of the flap bears two names, one too faded to read and the other partially legible with “Brisson” over another name. A nice ensemble for the martial collector.

The right side of the action is fitted with remnants of a scope base, affixed with four screws, and the base ground down and now acting as a placeholder. The traditionally checkered capped pistolgrip stock with right-side cheekpiece appears to be myrtlewood with rosewood accents and remains in very good condition showing a repaired crack and synthetic filler behind the upper tang, a plug at either side of the wrist and some scattered small cracks in the gloss varnish. The wood exhibits some fine grain figure throughout the sides of the buttstock. The rifle is equipped with the thin checkered wheel bolt release, sling swivel studs, factory black rubber ventilated pad, and sighted with a flip-up white diamond rear sight and brass bead Sheard-style front sight on matted ramp without hood. The rifle is also fitted with Weaver-style bases that hold a set of Leupold Detacho mounts and a German-made Weatherby Imperial 4x81 scope that shows some light flaking along the exterior and retains good serviceable optics with crosshair reticle and slight yellowing overall.

about 95% of what appears to be a nice quality reapplied high polish blue showing some mild thinning to gray along the barrel a most of the loss due to a few small scattered areas of light to moderate oxidation along the edges of the receiver and rear of the bolt. The receiver, bolt handle and unmarked floorplate are taking on a deep plum tone under bright light and the markings remain mostly strong, the caliber designation on the left barrel shank slightly washed out. The checkered capped pistolgrip maple stock with right-side cheekpiece is likely a period replacement and remains in about very good condition showing a thin 1” crack at the upper tang, some scattered light dings and the high gloss varnish taking on a craquelure. The stock features traditional checkering, contrasting diamond inlays on either side of the grip and underside forend, black forend tip and pistolgrip cap with white line spacers, sling swivel studs and a black Pachmayr ventilated rubber pad. The lightly colored wood also exhibits some lovely grain figure throughout and the action has been glass-bedded. There are no provisions for iron sights though the receiver is of course drilled and tapped for mounts. (13A9949-111) {C&R} [Dr. James D. Morgan Collection] (800/1200)

(700/900)

even fading to a mild gray-brown patina under bright light. The barrels feature a sunken rib with raised matted sections front a feature seen sporadically on Ithaca guns of this vintage and no doubt a special order request given how seldom it is seen. The frame is a mostly pewter gray patina with some darkening along the bottom and very fine freckling, the Grade 2 engraving is subtle but nice with Ithaca-style large loose scroll and single game birds on each flat. The custom checkered capped pistolgrip buttstock and splinter-style forend with ebony tip are near very good, there are handling and light impact marks throughout and a touch of varnish added. The wood figure is very nice, particularly on the left of the butt and while the length-of-pull is 14 1/8'', the drops are an interesting 1 1/8'' and 3'' and the buttstock interior has been modified with a large hollowed out section. The buttstock is obviously of period construction as its age and patina match the gun perfectly and the original factory hard rubber buttplate is intact. The forend and barrels are matching the frame. The gun weighs-in at just over 6 lbs., giving it a very different look and feel than a standard Flues 16 gauge gun. The barrels lock up solid with a faint sliver of light between breech and standing breech and top lever a touch right of center. The safety is automatic and the ejectors are robust and in-time. A very interesting and honest Ithaca Flues ejectorgun. (13A11472-30) {C&R} (800/1200)

ABSENTEE/TELEPHONE BIDDING INFORMATION

ABSENTEE BIDDING

We are often asked various questions by absentee bidders after a sale regarding why they did or didn't get an item they bid on. We would like to clarify how absentee bidding works so strategies may be altered to maximize effectiveness.

First, absentee bidders are bidding against other absentee bidders, bidders in attendance and those bidding live via online platforms If two absentee bids are received for the same amount, the one received first takes precedence. If two or more absentee bids are received for a particular item (which is usually the case) we open the bidding at one increment above the lower bid. Example.. bidder "A" bids $375 and bidder "B" bids $450 on the same item, the bidding will open at $400 and the floor competes from there. If bidder "A" bid $450 and bidder "B" bid $450+, the bidding would open with bidder "B" at $475. This brings us to another situation. Absentee bidders sometimes use odd bidding techniques for example bidding $401 or $51 or $76. This is normally much more of a disadvantage than an advantage for the following reasons. A $400+ beats $401 or even $410 for that matter because the smallest increment we would use is $25. When the normal increments are broken it can work against the bidder; example: bidder "A" bids $401 and the bid ends up on the floor (by chance only) at $400. We bid $401 which first off, immediately indicates that the bid is at its maximum point and secondly we will take a bid of $402 and sell it to the floor when normally we would need at least an increment of $25.

The plus is normally used to break a tie, however we will not take an item away from a bidder who bid $400+ for an increment less than the next normal increment. Therefore odd bidding doesn't usually work to a bidders' advantage. Also a bid of $401+ is useless because the bidding would never tie at such an odd increment so a bid of $400+ is more effective as the plus is more likely to come into play.

Multiple plus bids are also difficult for us to execute. A bid of $400+++ leaves many variables. In $25 increments if it indeed ties at $400 equals $525; i.e. the floor bids $400, we bid $425 (first plus) the floor bids $450, we bid $475 (second plus), the floor bids $500, we bid $525 (third plus). This is multiplied doubly if we use $50 increments placing the $400+++ bid at $650 in the same scenario. Therefore we ask that bidders bid as high as they are willing to go and if they wish to break a possible tie to use a single plus.

We have been asked by bidders why they, who bid $500+ on an item, didn't get it when it sold at $550. The reason is simple, a tie did not occur. This again is an example of a bidder not understanding the purpose of the plus and that there is only a certain percentage of the time when a tie does occur.

We value our absentee bid business greatly and we treat our bidders fairly. You can feel comfortable bidding as much as you wish and you only need to outbid another bidder. On several occasions bidders have questioned our use of this policy because they felt they got most items near or at their top bid. We have thousands of customers, many of these customers share similar interests. Desirable items receive heavy absentee bid activity, many times they open quite high on crossing absentee bids. Occasionally a good item either gets cataloged without our realizing its value or gets inadvertently buried in the second half of the catalog. We obviously try not to let this happen but being realists, we know that it does happen from time to time. We are shocked at how well read our catalogs are and it is not uncommon to receive ten or more absentee bids on such an item.

RESULTS WILL BE AVAILABLE ON THE THURSDAY FOLLOWING THE SALE.

TELEPHONE BIDDING

Our advice to telephone bidders and all bidders for that matter is to have a stop point in mind and bid actively to that point, then if you need some time to think you can. Telephone bidders are wise to let an item slow down before they start trying to bid, when bidding is moving quickly a phone bidder cannot get a bid in before the bid advances on the floor. One wise technique is to give the staff member a stop point when the bidding opens. Say the bid is at $400 and a staff member is told to bid to $800, they can bid like any bidder in the hall until that point and then ask if the phone bidder would like to advance over that point. The most common problem with phone bidders is their not understanding the pace of the auction and over–thinking, or attempting to be a "buzzer beater", let us assure you that the buzzer usually wins.

The ideal telephone bidder responds quickly with a simple "yes" or "bid". Thinking ahead and removing the thoughts of trying to use a "strategy" works best when bidding in that manner.

What we would like all absentee and telephone bidders to remember is that you aren't at the auction. There is no perfect system to assure that all absentee and telephone bidders can bid with the same ease as they could if they were at the sale. We do everything to accommodate absentee bidders and as we said before we value your business greatly. We hope that this information is helpful and as always we are open to comments and suggestions on how we can better serve our customers.

IN ORDER TO BID BY TELEPHONE, THE BIDDER MUST BE WILLING TO PAY AT LEAST THE LOW ESTIMATE OF THE ITEM BEING BID ON. IF YOU FAX YOUR BID SHEET INTO OUR OFFICE, PLEASE CALL TO CONFIRM THAT WE DID RECEIVE IT. THANK YOU. 603/627-7383
