Terms & Conditions We advise all bidders to read the Terms and Conditions of the Sale before bidding with Dan Morphy Auctions LLC and/or its affiliates Morphy Firearms LLC, and Morphy Auctions, Las Vegas collectively referred to below as MORPHY’S. Those who bid are bound by those Terms and Conditions of the Sale, as amended by any oral announcement or posted notices, which together form the contract of the sale between the successful bidder (purchaser), MORPHY’S and the seller (consignor) of the lot.
TERMS OF SALE
When bidding on any lot offered by MORPHY’S, the bidder indicates acceptance of the following Terms of Sale. Any participation in the auction binds you to agreement of these terms whether or not you read or understand said terms.
CONDITION OF ITEMS
MORPHY’S makes every effort to accurately describe all items offered in its sales, however all items for sale are “as is,” and it is the bidder’s responsibility (present or absentee bidders) to determine the exact condition of each item. MORPHY’S will not be held responsible for typographical errors. Neither we nor the consignor, make any guarantees, warranties, or representation expressed, or implied, in regard to the property or the correctness of the catalog or other description of the authenticity of authorship, physical condition, size, quality, rarity, importance, provenance, exhibition, literature or historic relevance of the property or otherwise. No statement anywhere whether oral or written, shall be deemed such a guarantee, warranty or representation. Prospective bidders should inspect the property before bidding to determine its condition, size and whether or not it has been restored. It is the bidder’s responsibility to initiate contact with Morphy’s in request for additional information regarding the items. Submit all questions regarding upcoming auction items at least 48 hours prior to the date of auction. We will make every effort to answer all submitted questions in a timely manner. However, we cannot guarantee that questions submitted within 48 hours of the auction date will be answered prior to the auction. The consigner and we make no representation or warranty as to whether the purchaser acquires any reproduction rights in the property. Returns will not be accepted under any circumstances. All items will be available for preview approximately one (1) month prior to the auction. All items are sold for display purpose. If electrical, mechanical, or other working parts are inoperable, even if working at the time of sale, we are not liable due to the inherent nature of the age of these antiques and items. Submit all questions regarding upcoming auction items at least 48 hours prior to the date of auction. We will make every effort to answer all submitted questions in a timely manner. However, we cannot guarantee that questions submitted within 48 hours of the auction date will be answered prior to the auction. AUTOMOBILES – These terms do NOT apply to our automobile auctions. To view the terms and conditions for our Automobile Auctions, please go to: www.morphyauctions.com/autoterms FIREARMS – All firearms transfers will be in strict accordance with all International, Federal, State and local laws. Be sure to check your country, state and local laws before bidding. If you are unable to import, purchase or own a firearm according to your residency laws, do not bid on these items. If you bid and find out later you cannot legally own/accept delivery, the bid is still a valid contract that the buyer must pay. • Condition of Firearms and Related Items o Condition is always a subjective evaluation. Final responsibility rests with the buyer to assess the condition of items.
It is not possible to adequately describe in text or photos an antique or collectible item, and many modern items, that have seen use and show wear. MORPHY’S’s goal at all times is to be as fair and honest in our catalog descriptions. MORPHY’S recommends that you personally inspect all items, or enlist a trusted professional to do so for you. o MORPHY’S will only consider a refund when there is a major description discrepancy or authenticity issue that has a major effect on value. Examples that apply are major restoration or repair not described, counterfeits, reproductions or major fabrications. o MORPHY’S will not refund sales with buyers that have disputes regarding a firearm’s bore condition. o If the discrepancy is less than major, MORPHY’S will not under any circumstance provide a refund. This means that if you are purchasing an item and find undisclosed blemishes, finish differences, wood-to-metal fits issues, surface cracks or chips in wood, dings and dents, and other similar differences, it will not qualify for refund consideration. o Should the buyer have a major dispute regarding an item, the buyer must notify MORPHY’S within three (3) days of receipt of the item to receive consideration. MORPHY’S in its sole discretion may provide refunds for major description discrepancies or authenticity issues. Should MORPHY’S deny an authenticity issue dispute of the buyer, and the buyer is not satisfied, the buyer may, at his or her own expense, obtain the written opinion of two mutually agreed upon recognized experts in the field of the disputed item. The final decision of those experts will determine any refund consideration. o There will be no options for refunds of any type beyond 35 calendar days from the auction date. o Paying late and thus receiving items late will not change the limitation on the dates above for refund consideration. MORPHY’S ships items in order of payment. o These terms are available only to the original buyer of record. All sales are final. • Firearms Catalog Designations o A: antique o M: modern (post 1898), Federal Firearms License (FFL) requirements apply o C: curio & relic eligible o N: National Firearms Act / Title II Gun Control Act of 1968 (Class III SOT) requirements apply o ^:Modern firearm imported from Canada, will have an inconspicuous marking that contains at least “BV LYNDEN WA” and any of the following not already marked on the firearm: serial number, caliber, country of manufacture, manufacturer name and model. Marking letters are 1/16” tall and just over 0.03” deep. Buyers must consider this in their bidding. Marking will not appear on antique firearms imported from Canada. • Checkout and pickup at our location: o The same person to whom the bidder number is registered must be the person to pick up the firearm(s) at the conclusion of the sale – Federal Law disallows anyone else from accepting the transfer. o Modern firearms sales to non-licensed bidders who are picking up guns at our location will require the completion of a form 4473 background check. (continued...)

Handguns will only be sold to those persons 21 years of age, or older.

GOODS MADE FROM OR CONTAINING MATERIALS FROM PROTECTED SPECIES - MORPHY’S does not accept any responsibility or liability for the sale of items containing materials from protected species or for any omission in marking or labeling goods as containing materials from protected species. Such material includes, but is not limited to, ivory from elephants and walruses, tortoise shell, crocodile skin, whalebone, rhinoceros horn, some species of coral and certain woods. Restrictions on the importation, exportation,
sale, transfer, and/or possession of goods containing materials from protected species derive from international, federal, and state laws and regulations promulgated thereunder. Laws include, but are not limited to, the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Flora and Fauna (CITES), the Endangered Species Act (ESA) and the Marine Mammals Protection Act (MMPA). States currently restricting trade of protected species include, but are not limited to, California, New York and New Jersey. Prospective purchasers are on notice that several countries completely prohibit importation of property made, all or in part, of protected materials. Some countries require special permits, such as a CITES permit, from the relevant regulating authority in the countries of exportation and importation as well. Potential purchasers intending to import the property into another country should be familiar with the relevant customs laws and regulations prior to bidding on goods containing material from protected species. Regulations may vary as the U.S. generally prohibits importation of articles containing material(s) from species it has designated endangered or threatened if the articles are less than 100 years old, subject to certain exceptions. It shall be the potential purchaser’s sole responsibility to research and satisfy the requirements of any laws and regulations that apply to the import and export of property as described in the aforementioned paragraphs. All purchasers agree to comply with any and all domestic and international restrictions on the trade of protected species as a condition of the sale. Please note that the ability to obtain an export license or certificate does not ensure the ability to obtain an import license or certificate in another country, and vice versa. It is the purchaser’s responsibility to obtain any export or import licenses and/or certificates as well as any other required documentation. MORPHY’S is not able to assist the purchaser in attempting to obtain the appropriate licenses and/or certificates, and there is no assurance that an export license or certificate can be obtained. The inability or delay in obtaining permits, licenses or other permissions to import or export goods containing material from protected species will not constitute a basis for rescission or cancellation of the sale of said goods or the delay in payment of purchased items in accordance with these Bidder Terms and Conditions.

BIDDING RIGHTS & RESPONSIBILITIES
The auctioneer will determine the highest bidder. The auctioneer alone has the right to reopen the bidding of an item if deemed necessary due to a dispute. If there is a tie bid between the floor and Internet or absentee bid, the floor bid takes precedence. MORPHY’S and its representatives reserve the right to remove those attendees who impede preview and/or the auction. Title to all merchandise shall pass to the highest bidder at the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer. The buyer will then assume all risk and full responsibility of the lot purchased once ownership has changed. We recommend that you arrange insurance for your items immediately upon becoming the highest bidder. MORPHY’S is not responsible for any errors in bids, omissions of bids, or failure to execute bids and shall have no liability to any bidder for any technical or other failure associated with the internet, absentee bidding, or telephone bidding.

Terms & Conditions • ABSENTEE BIDDING - MORPHY’S will accept absentee bids if pre-authorized by mail, fax or through www.morphyauctions. com online. Absentee bidders must use the absentee bid form and clearly mark the lot number, title and maximum bid amount. Absentee bidding forms may be accessed online at www. morphyauctions.com. If there are two (2) identical bids placed on the same item, priority will be given to the first bid received. All bids must be left in increments as explained on our bid form. If a bid is “out of increment,” the auctioneer has the right to round the bid up to the next correct increment. Bidders may preview, register and place bids online through our website, www. morphyauctions.com. Absentee and online bids placed through www.morphyauctions.com will be auto charged to the credit card entered 48 hours after the end of the sale. If you wish to pay by another method please contact us within 48 hours after the sale. Seller(s) agree to allow the Auctioneer to accept and execute absentee bids in a competitive manner for potential buyers and under the Morphy Auctions absentee bidding terms and conditions. During the live sale, the auctioneer will execute your absentee bid competitively up to the maximum amount you have indicated. • ONLINE BIDDING - Online bidding through www.morphyauctions. com, Live Auctioneers, Bidsquare, Proxibid, or other bidding platforms may be available; all Terms and Conditions still apply.

If a credit card has been provided to one of the online bidding platforms, MORPHY’S reserves the right to use and charge the credit card if the winning bidder has not paid via another method by the 7 day term in Payment Terms below. Due to our fast paced auctions and bids coming from floor bidders, phone bidders, internet bidders and absentee bids, the auctioneer has the final word on all item(s) sold. You (the bidder) assume the risk of winning an item online and not having the item actually sell to you. This is due to the final call of the auctioneer and the operator not being able to re-open that lot. • BID RESULTS – MORPHY’S will only contact successful bidders. Please allow 24-48 hours post auction to receive your official invoice from Morphy Auctions. The invoice will include item, hammer price, premium, packing and handling, shipping, insurance, and any other charges that apply.

PACKING/SHIPPING
• It is the bidder’s responsibility to take shipping and handlings & insurance costs into consideration when bidding on items. • BIDDERS PRESENT AND TAKING ITEMS AFTER AUCTION – Since item liability transfers upon a successful bid, items paid for must be packed, transported and/or removed by the purchaser at his/ her own risk after the close of the sale. We recommend that you arrange insurance for your items immediately upon becoming the highest bidder. If any employee or agent of MORPHY’S shall pack or transport the merchandise, it is fully at the risk and responsibility and expense of the purchaser. MORPHY’S shall not be held liable for any loss or damage that may be caused by the said agent or employee. • ITEMS NOT PICKED UP THE DAY OF THE SALE (DENVER LOCATION ONLY) – Packaging, shipping, and insurance on items will be made available as an added courtesy and cost. We recommend that you arrange insurance for your items immediately upon becoming the highest bidder. Again, if any employee or agent of MORPHY’S shall pack or transport the merchandise, it is fully at the risk and responsibility and expense of the purchaser. MORPHY’S shall not be held liable for any loss or damage that may be caused by the said agent or employee. All applicable charges will be applied. Shipping will be based on actual costs via FedEx, FedEx Freight, or USPS (best way). Handling and insurance will vary in cost depending on each invoice. All packages will be shipped with insurance. Items will ship seven to fourteen (7-14) business days after payment is received. • INSURANCE – Shipping insurance is automatically added up to $1,000 for every package. If your package is valued at >$10,000 we will also automatically add “Additional Insurance”, which you can decline by contacting us. If you wish to arrange for “Additional Insurance” for packages valued between $1,000 and $10,000 please contact us prior to payment and we can quote this additional insurance amount for you. Insurance for all 3rd party shipments must be arranged through that carrier. • INTERNATIONAL SHIPMENTS – MORPHY’S has the capability to ship to international bidders. By law, MORPHY’S cannot, and will not, declare lesser values for any international purchases and all shipments will include the invoice with purchase totals including the buyer’s premium and shipping cost. All international bidders are responsible for knowing their country’s laws on importing items and for paying all customs and duties on the items. • 3RD PARTY SHIPPING of Large Items – Bidders MUST arrange and
pay for 3rd party shipping when packages are a certain weight, length, or dimensional size. ∙ Dimensional size is length (the longest measurement) + (height x 2) + (width x 2). For example a 36” x 36” x 12” package = 36 + (36 x2) + (12 x 2) = 132” ∙ USA home shipments must be <70 lbs. and <108” length and <165” dimensional size ∙ USA business shipments must be <150 lbs. and <108” length and <165” dimensional size ∙ International shipments must be <150 lbs. and <108” length and <130” dimensional size ∙ There may be certain shipments that meet these requirements that will still require 3rd party shipping, and we will communicate the reason in those cases. • STORAGE FEE – MORPHY’S will charge a storage fee of $50/week for any items awaiting pickup for more than 14 days following the auction date.

Buyers who have not made their payment within the due date of 7 days may not return any items under any circumstances.

This early pistol was introduced in 1949 and was the first handgun made by the new firm of Sturm Ruger & Co. The early models feature the red medallion on left side but upon the death of Alexander Sturm in 1952, the emblems were changed to black; 27,000 were manufactured prior to that point. This pistol was manufactured in 1950, during the second full year of production and are referred to by collectors as the Red Eagle Auto. These early models features the fixed rear sight, blued finish, and black composite grips; and also feature enlarged ejector port implemented in November 1950 at serial range 10200 and referred to as the ‘Changed of 1950’. The red logo has the four feathers and no letter. These pistols were fairly expensive with an introductory price of $57.50 in 1950 and were considered one of the most reliable .22 semi-automatics ever produced. This particular example retains approximately 95-98% original factory blue and shows no signs of any real use or wear. Grips are near mint with a bit of flaking on the red logo on left panel. Fine bore and action. 500.00 - 800.00

This shotgun was made around 1866 or 1867 and was one of the first centerfire shotguns made by Steven Grant, when he first opened his first shop on James Street location in London. Steven Grant originally worked for Boss & Co. but then left to work on his own. He moved from Ireland to London in 1843, then in 1850 he moved even further up the ladder to Thomas Boss & Co. Grant left Boss in 1866. The ledger book shows that this serial number along with another were made for and sold to John Spencer Churchill. He is recorded in the log book as the Marquise and Blandford. He also held the title of 7th Duke of Marlborough. He was the grandfather of prime minister, Sir Winston Churchill. Grant delivered this pair to members of parliament during November of 1867. This is an excellent example of a very fine English centerfire hammer gun by famed and fine maker, Steven Grant.

Feb. 14. 1854”, with loading tube under barrel with brass frame, ring lever, case color hammer, brass bead front side and wind drift blued rear sight at rear of frame. The Volcanic pistols were manufactured from 1855 to 1857 by the Volcanic Repeating Arms Company. This is the predecessor to the Winchester Arms Co., and if the design appears familiar, it is because the loading mechanism is similar to the system found on the famous Henry rifle, but these pistols fired the caseless cartridge, referred to as the Volcanic cartridge. They were manufactured in New Haven, Connecticut. Approximately 1,500 Volcanic Navy’s were produced. This pistol remains in excellent condition. The brass frame is untouched, dark mustard tone. The barrel and magazine are beautiful blue with plum tint and razor sharp edges. The bolt still has much original blue. The walnut grips are excellent with no cracks. Traces of case colors on hammer and lever have turned a soft gray patina. Clean, near mint bore with sharp and strong rifling. The Volcanic Navy Repeating Pistol is an iconic ancestor to the Winchester brand and was one of the first successful, large capacity repeating pistols ever manufactured.

Prior to World War II, a customer could order a National Match pistol LOT - 356 for approximately $4 extra that would include a hand-honed action and a Match barrel. The balance of the gun was similar to a standard model with blued finish, checkered walnut grip panels and all small checkered parts. Due to the fact that most pistol matches required fixed sights, very few Match pistols were ordered with the Stevens adjustable rear sight, making them one of the more scarce pre-war 1911s available. This all original example shows some grey patina on front grip strap, high edge muzzle wear and has a pencil eraser-sized dull spot on right rear of slide. Barrel is stamped “Colt 45 Auto Match” on lower left side at lug. No Swartz safety. Overall the pistol retains approximately 85-90% original high polish factory blue finish. Fine bore and action.

Designated the Model 1935/06 Portuguese GNR (Garde Nationale and Republicanie, Republic National Guard). An exact total of 564 were manufactured in 1935 only. Information on these guns comes directly from the Portugeuse government. All have the intertwined “GNR” above chamber, are marked “Carregada” on left side, lower safety area marked “Seguranca”, have checkered walnut grips and serial numbers are followed by a small letter “v”. All four pistols have all matching numbers. Comes with four original holsters, four original magazine pouches, four original loading tools and all four original metal top cleaning rods. Three have pins, one holster does not. Back of the magazine pouches are all dated 1936. All four have nickel body aluminum bottom magazines not numbered. All have grip safeties. All toggles have the Mauser banner. Guns feature the standard factory blue finish with straw colored small parts. Walnut checkered grips are not numbered. All have fine bores and actions. Serial No. 2273 shows the most wear, grip straps are grey patina, rail is grey, 30% blue on sideplate, light muzzle wear, 75%. 2272 shows very little wear, retains approximately 95%+ original finish. 2275 is as nice as 2272. 2274 has high edge rail wear, high edge wear on sideplate, light muzzle wear and approximately 85-90%. All have nice straw colors. Grips are all excellent with no cracks or chips on any of them. It is interesting to note that these pistols were sent to Portugal at the time of the Spanish Revolution and rise of the Brown Shirts and the Nazi party in Germany. Portugal officially supported Franco’s National Forces during the era these guns were shipped, as did Italy and Germany. The need for pistols probably arose from the possibility of being drug into the Spanish Civil War. During World War II, Portugal remained neutral but supported both the Allies and Axis power with supplies and as a country leaned in favor of the Nazis. This is a once in a lifetime single collection of four consecutive Lugers with a total production of just slightly over 500 units, sent to a country during the tumultuous era of 1935 to 1945. 30,000.00 - 50,000.00

375 - (A) CS ARMORY RICHMOND HIGH HUMP RIFLE MUSKET. Manufacturer: Richmond Caliber: .580 Barrel Length: 40” FFL Status: Antique
This is a very unusual example. First, the high hump lock is devoid of any factory stamps on the exterior; once lock is removed, you can see the stamp “G.V.R. 1” on the reverse with “S” stamped on mechanism. It appears very old and original, and is case hardened of which approximately 60% remains. Likewise the inletted wood beneath the side plate appears to be old and original. The barrel is finished in the white and it, too, is sans any markings. The style of the bolster is correct. Rear sight is an 1858 type folding leaf rear with the three and five designation, sans serifs. Barrel bands are finished in the white and the letter “U” is on the forward most barrel band on the right side, middle band with swivel has no “U”, and rear band has perpendicular “U” on left side. Has the brass stock tip with iron screw. The one piece walnut stock shows no sign of any inspector mark, nor does it show any sign of having been removed. Trigger guard has the integral sling swivel. Butt plate has the “U.S.” stamp as seen on page 14 of “C.S. Armory Richmond” by Davies. Patch box is typical. The compartment is plain. Overall, this rifle is in beautiful condition. All metal is in the white, with the exception of the lock and stock tip, which is very clean. This rifle is in near new, almost unused condition. Shows all proper aging and inletting. The interior of the lock is unlike any that we could find in the book. It is our summation that it is an early tool room or prototype Richmond High Hump musket in phenomenal condition. Three grooved rifled bore is in near mint condition. Very interesting, highly collectible Confederate made Civil War weapon. Condition is un-improvable. 3,000.00 - 5,000.00

394 - (A) INCREDIBLE SHARPS LONG RANGE MODEL 1874 RIFLE. Manufacturer: Sharps Model: Long Range Model 1874 No. 1 Serial No. 156516 Caliber: .440 Barrel Length: 32” FFL Status: Antique We measured the bore and it is most likely .44-90 but should be chamber cast to determine the exact caliber. According to the research letter by Dr. Richard Lebowski it is listed in the order book No. 2 as a Model 1874 Long Range No. 1 rifle invoiced at the Bridgeport Factory on April 8th, 1876 to William Read & Sons, Boston, Massachusetts. It is listed only as a “Long Range Rifle Complete” but the price of $125 -20+10% clearly indicates it was a No.1 Grade, probably with spirit level front sight. The Read Store purchased this rifle for H.P. Blake of Walpole, Massachusetts. Blake has extensive correspondence with the Sharps Company on this gun. He returned serial No. 156515 to the factory for stock work, then a new barrel with lighter rifling, and finally for an extra-long range veneer staff to correct his poor scores at 800-1000 yards. He eventually pronounced his rifle perfect. It is interesting to note, that when the sight is removed, the serial number matches that of the serial number on the veneer base, so it was numbered and fitted to this gun. While not mentioned in the letter, the full octagon barrel is stamped “Frank Wesson Worcester, Mass”. The barrel is not cut for a rear sight and sports a spirit level target front sight. The discussion as to the last change regarding the veneer sight as the rifle then being perfect that the Wesson barrel was the new barrel with lighter rifling, but no mention of why they used a Wesson barrel. According to Sharps Firearms, Sellers, there were 70 No. 1 long-range rifles produced at Bridgeport in the period Nov. 1875 to Oct. 1879 and according to the referenced publication they all had 34” octagon barrels while this rifle measures 32”. The original numbered base contains a C. Sharps reproduction vernier staff. Other features on this rifle include a long range veneer base at rear of stock. The walnut stock is finely checkered with pistol grip and checkered steel shotgun butt plate. Stock is excellent to near mint with original finish and no cracks or chips. Left side of stock has an adhered sticker that reads “R.D. No. 4 Schenevus, New York”. All of the appended metal including trigger plate, lock plate and butt plate, along with the butt stock are matching numbered “5516” instead of the last four digits of the SN which is “6516”, apparently an assembler’s mistake. As to condition, the barrel retains approximately 90% original blue finish with usual age freckling. The frame retains generous portions of original case colors with the majority turned gun metal grey. Stocks are excellent with sharp checkering. Trigger is checkered. Butt stock displays beautiful deluxe grain. Perfection action. Strong rifled bore with some minor black powder abrasion. Beautiful special order, high condition and storied long range Sharps rifle. 7,000.00 - 10,000.00

408 - (A) PHENOMENAL IDENTIFIED MARTIALLY MARKED HENRY LEVER ACTION REPEATING RIFLE. Manufacturer: Henry Model: 1860 Serial No. 3038 Caliber: .44 RF Barrel Length: 24” FFL Status: Antique Offered is one of the finest condition Martially marked Henry rifles to surface. According to the Springfield Research letter, this rifle was issued to Private Matthew Johnson, Company K, Third Regiment, U.S. Veterans Volunteer Infantry, May 13th, 1865. Johnson volunteered in Philadelphia, March 29th, 1865. Johnson was previously enlisted in the Third Regiment of the Pennsylvania Reserves during the Civil War. This data was found in Company K records, the United States Archives in Washington, D.C. It is astounding that this Henry rifle has remained in such fine all original condition; the flutes between the barrel and tube retain the majority of their original brilliant factory blue finish. The tube is a soft brown patina with generous amounts of high polish blue at loading port. Barrel also retains generous amounts of factory blue blending with soft patina. The Henry barrel legends are sharp as new; nearly all of the original blue remains under rear sight, there is none of the usual blotching, nor is there any pinprick freckling of any kind. Brass frame and buttplate have never been touched and are a beautiful rich mustard color. Generous amounts of case colors still visible on hammer. Lever is a soft patina with traces of color. All original screwheads are nearly perfect and retain generous amounts of the Nitre blue finish. Walnut stock is excellent, proud to metal with no cracks, chips or shrinkage of any kind with nearly all of the original finish; never touched, with just a few minor bruises. The Charles G. Chapman cartouche in oval on right side of stock is extremely sharp. The following inspector marks can be found: “C.G.C.” and “H” can be found on the right barrel flat at breech; “H.H.” is stamped on right side of receiver at breech; “H” at top right of buttplate; “H” at heel on right side. Bolt retains 50% original Nitre blue. Bore is excellent with sharp rifling. This is considered a Type 1 Martially marked Henry with a Type B folding rear sight. Buttstock is the type found on page 92 in the Henry Rifle book by Les Quick; with a round heel brass buttplate. Front sight is a later style square-back, as seen on page 121. Serial numbers can be found on top of barrel, inside buttplate, both buttplate screws, inside lower tang, and stamped within the stock channel at top. The original hickory four piece wooden cleaning rod is contained in the trapdoor and also comes with two original cartridges. It is readily apparent from examination of this rifle, both inside and out, that it has seen very little use and was kept tucked away from the ravages of time to have survived in such phenomenal for this past 151 years. One would be hard pressed to find a finer, all original example of an original Martially marked Henry rifle. Simply put; one of the finest known surviving examples, an investment quality firearm of the highest degree that must be seen to be truly appreciated. 40,000.00 - 75,000.00

420 - (C) RARE EARLY WEATHERBY RIFLE (.257 ROBERTS). Manufacturer: Weatherby Serial No. 3147 Caliber: .257 Roberts Barrel Length: 22” FFL Status: Curio & Relic
LOT - 420
Roy Weatherby financed his original company in 1946 with $50,000. His early works were basically custom rifles built for clients using the old FN Mauser action. It was not until 1949 that Roy Weatherby ordered his first Mauster actions directly from FN in Belgium with his name and California stamped on frame. This early rifle pre-dates the stamped frames that began in 1949, which would indicate production sometime between 1946 and 1948. The stock is distinctively Weatherby which has been his trademark since the beginning of his custom rifles. The rifle was stocked in exotic Myrtle wood with his signature rakish Monte Carlo comb, wide pistol grip with rosewood cap, and rosewood forend top. The grip and forend were finely checkered. Sling eyes installed, with a Pachmayr red waffle pad, and his most distinguishing characteristic of a Weatherby rifle, the contrasting wood inlays that were popular with custom gunsmiths after the war. The right side of the stock features the decorative triple wood inlay of black walnut, maple, and mesquite, this design is repeated on both sides of the forend. The design found under the forend has a silver inlay instead of maple and the pistol grip cap has a white inlaid diamond of maple. In addition, the floor plate is engraved with a silver overlay antlered game with silver diamond on trigger guard. The action is a Mauser action that bears no markings other than the serial number. Likewise, the barrel is simply stamped “Weatherby .257 Roberts”. Roy realized early on that he needed something other than stock work to set him apart, so by 1951 the Weatherby line consisted of Wild Cat Weatherby only cartridges based on existing cartridges; another major portion of his business at that time was rechambering customer’s rifles to the uniquely different Weatherby chamberings. In fact, the 1951 catalog does not list the .257 Roberts as being available through his company, as he had completely converted to his own line of rifles and matching chamberings. These very early rifles, especially those made for standard cartridges, are extremely difficult to find and rarely seen. As to condition, this rifle was made sans any rear sight, but does have a banded front sight stamped “C.A. Dahl”. It has solid steel Buehler mounts and rings (no scope). Barrel retains 98% original blue with a couple spots of freckling. Bolt is polished. Stock is excellent with no cracks or chips. Fine bore and action. Simply a beautiful and very early Weatherby custom rifle. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this firearm will be given to Ducks Unlimited Canada. 1,500.00 - 2,500.00 421 - (C) WINCHESTER MODEL 52C BOLT ACTION TARGET RIFLE.

LOT - 424
The Weatherby Empire rose from humble beginnings when Roy opened his shop in 1946. While developing his own line of cartridges and custom rifles, a large part of his early business was converting customer’s actions and stocking with the distinctive Weatherby style. You will find prices for custom work in his 1951 catalog. These services continued to be offered through the 1960’s but are no longer listed for custom gun work as of 1970. He specifically speaks to the 1903 action in his 1951 catalog that all serial numbers must be above 800000, so this is an early example of his work. Features Springfield 1903 action, a new Weatherby MK barrel in the hot .220 Rocket caliber, which, at the time, was the fastest centerfire available. The rifle was made without sights. The custom Weatherby stock features contrasting pistol grip cap and forend. Stock is made of walnut with a decorative inlay mid-forearm, roll over cheek piece, and checkered Winchester Model 70-style buttplate. The action is basically a standard 03 including bolt. Receiver is drilled and tapped for a scope. The floorplate, trigger guard, and bolt have been nickel plated. Fine bore and action. Metal retains virtually all of the custom Weatherby reapplied finish. Near mint stock with a few minor impressions. The .220 Rocket was a very short-lived cartridge and was no longer listed in the 1961 catalog, making this a classic 1950’s short-lived cartridge of the bygone Wildcat era. The earliest Weatherby custom we have seen. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this firearm will be given to Ducks Unlimited Canada. 1,500.00 - 3,000.00

LOT - 438
Manufactured in 1907. The trapper models in the Winchester lever action line are some of the most interesting of all variations. They are very scarce and highly collectible and the majority saw extremely hard use in the field and as such do not surface in high condition if they surface at all. This trapper sports the full magazine, saddle ring and stud, walnut stocks, carbine butt, post front sight and folding ladder carbine rear sight. Given the condition, this little rifle could tell some stories. All metal surfaces are basically a gun metal grey with spotting and are devoid of any original finish. Walnut forend is very good with no cracks or major chips. Butt stock is very good with no cracks but is missing a 1” piece at right and left tang. Perfect working order. Bore exhibits visible rifling with normal abrasions. Right side frame has one replaced screw. A scarce little carbine. According to Madis, the Trapper Carbines feature standard length forearms until barrels reach a length of 15” or less. “.38 WCF” is stamped perfectly at breech, properly spaced and could not have been trimmed. Due to short barrel, the “P.W.” is stamped forward of the rear sight. The post front sight is exactly 1-1/4” from muzzle to center. Barrel band is 7/8” from muzzle to center. Barrel has proper magazine set-back and taper. Muzzle is slightly rounded and shows no signs of recent shortening. All of these characteristics are indicative of an original short barrel carbine. 2,500.00 - 3,500.00 439 - (N) FULLY AUTOMATIC FN SCAR 16 RIFLE.

The stock is two pieces made to absorb recoil and has the Hydro-Coil black rubber recoil pad. The Hydro-Coil stock matches the wood grain beautifully and is in near mint condition with no cracks or chips. In fact, the rifle shows only light use since the Custom Weatherby conversion, and remains near new inside and out.

Manufacturer: Winchester Model: 1894 Serial No. 1531727 Caliber: .32 Winchester Special Barrel Length: 20” FFL Status: Curio & Relic
LOT - 441
This exquisite carbine was manufactured in 1949. Checking with factory records, no information available but it is our summation that this carbine is absolutely factory engraved and is the work of John or Nick Kusmit. John studied under George Ulrich and they plied their trade at the Winchester factory after the war. You can find examples of this distinct border style engraving on page 416 of the Winchester Engraving book. The panel scene features antlered game on both sides. The pin-punch leaves follow the pattern scene on page 415, and the game can be seen on page 412. The style of panel mirrors a Gough design seen on page 336. There is engraving covering both sides of the frame with the scarce dual panels. The tang is engraved with the addition of a deer head in circle. Original Winchester rear sight is engraved, barrel bands are engraved, as is the receiver toggle. Standard features include ramp front sight, full magazine, blued finish, two barrel bands, the forward most being flat, long wood walnut forend, straight grip walnut stock and checkered steel butt plate. Overall metal retains 99% original factory blue. Walnut stocks are near mint. Fine bore and action. A detailed close study of the engraving leaves no doubt that it is in the master class. Engraved Winchesters done at the factory after World War II are extremely scarce, especially on utilitarian weapons such as the Model 94. One of the most handsome post-war Winchester Model 1894 carbines we have had the pleasure to offer. 2,500.00 - 4,500.00 442 - (M) RARE WEATHERBY-J.P. SAUER & SOHN WEST GERMAN DRILLING.

The presentation plaque is unpolished with some brass showing through on eagle and beneath inscription. Interior shows some light staining and some fraying of material. Otherwise excellent. A few light scratches on the lid. An ultraviolet light test confirms that the green cloth lining does not fluoresce, thus it was woven prior to the advent of synthetic fibers which were first introduced in the 1930’s. Also accompanied by a lamented letter dated February 25th 1958 from Miss Mary Johnson showing significant age which reads “Mr. Robinson, This letter is about the President Theo Roosevelts shotgun in the box. My father was a good friend of the president. He went on many a hunting and shooting trips with the President. Before the President died, he gave the shotgun and he box it was in to my father. My father loved the President and thus the shotgun was his most prized possession.” Also accompanied by two Griffin & Howe factory letter stating that this gun was first entered into the Von Lengerke & Detmold logbook on October 1, 1901 as a Francotta Grade ‘A’ and confirms all of the current specifications to be correct. It was sold by this Chicago, Illinois sporting goods retailer. This information was extracted from V.L.&D. inventory records, Book No. 1, page 124 on October 3, 2008. There are also copies of this logbook, in color, a photograph of the VL&D storefront, and two copies of Francotte descriptions for this grade from 1923 and 1928 catalogs of VL&D. This particular gun is featured in an article on pages 6 through 21 of the prominent publication “The Double Gun & Single Shot Journal, Volume Twenty-Three, Issue 2” from summer of 2012. The article states that this shotgun, through a preponderance of evidence, this is, in fact a TR gun, according to testimonials from Phil Schreier, curator of the NRA museum who is of the opinion that this is a TR gun and would display it in the museum. This, along with information from Griffin & Howe, Tweed Roosevelt, Col. Greg Wynn, Sagamore Hill, and Mary Johnson. The article shows that Theodore Roosevelt gave many guns away to friends and hunting guides, so this would certainly fit the story, along with the fact that many of Roosevelt’s guns sat for many years at Sagamore Hill. They sat upright, which is consistent with the buttpad on this shotgun. A virtually identical case was made for Roosevelt for a 1902 Luger carbine from Kaiser Wilhelm, which bears the same design and plaque, possibly made by the same craftsman. Also, record archives from this gun show that it was paid for by VL&D and still in inventory in 1902, the first year of the Roosevelt presidency. Two copies of the magazine are included. A fine shotgun with some very extraordinary provenance. 50,000.00 - 80,000.00 186

(Excellent). 300.00 - 500.00 817 - PERIOD WOOD COLT DISPLAY CASE. Early wooden display box for a 51 Colt Navy or Remington Army with Burgandy lining. Not made by Colt, but definitely of the period. 300.00 - 500.00 818 - LOT OF 3: ORIGINAL GERMAN MP-40 MAGAZINES. The German MP-40 was a 32 shot fully automatic sub-machine gun for the German army from 1940 to 1945; often referred to as the “Burp” gun, it has a cycle rate of 400-550 rounds per minute. It was a high quality weapon that was used throughout the war. All three original magazines are full Nazi marked as follows: Magazine (A) stamped ayf43 with Waffenamt 280; Magazine (B) is stamped bte42 with Waffenamt 1aAB37; and Magazine (C) ayf42 with Waffenamt 280.

This box and labeling has not, to our knowledge, been found with cartridges or even a side label. It is typically found with inked notations on one end stating that it contains some small parts used in the Winchester factory. This box doesn’t have that feature though it could have been skillfully removed. Still, there are so few boxes designated for Merwin & Hulbert, and far fewer “picture” boxes, that this colorful box, even empty, is extremely popular among collectors. 300.00 - 600.00

821 - .55 MAYNARD SHOT SHELL BOX, MODEL 1865. Extremely rare in any condition, this example is exceptional, a fact that adds substantially to its rarity. While a full box of these may exist, we have yet to see one. 300.00 - 600.00 822 - .40-60 WCF AMMO (WIN MOD 1876). This box, the first by UMC, circa 1884, showing un-headstamped cartridge picture on front label. By the end of 1885, however, UMC had begun headstamping these rounds with the short-lived and desirable Raised Headstamp (“UMC SH 40-60”) as contained in this offering. Coming out as it did only months before Winchester’s much improved Model 1886 lever rifle as well as the single shot Model 1885 (High Wall & Low Wall) rifles, both with their several new caliber introductions, the 40-60 was never a big seller. While the labels show some age, the box remains tight at all seams and edges, unusual for these early taped-construction boxes. 300.00 - 600.00
LOT - 825
823 - .357 MAGNUM, 1ST WINCHESTER AMMO/BOX. In the “1935 Style” Winchester labeling, this is the box most often sought by S&W “Registered Magnum” collectors. Cartridges are all large primer, nickel-plated with the early headstamp: “WRA S&W 357 MAGNUM” (not Super Speed). Box has tight flaps and edges and great color. 350.00 - 550.00

This lot includes two period Western rigs. Rig (A) is for a Colt 4-3/4” single action and features brass brads, fully tooled, and approximately .41 caliber cartridge loops. Rig (B) is border tooled single pouch dark leather for a 5-1/2” Colt Single Action Army with a Lawrence belt .44 caliber.

828 - .40-75 BULLARD AMMO/BOX. Another of the scarce Bullard calibers, this one was essentially the same as the somewhat more common (though still scarce) .40-70 Bullard but with a meager five grain heavier powder charge. As both Bullard rounds were interchangeable with Winchester’s .40-65 and Marlin’s .40-60, either of which would have been more easily found in the marketplace, the Bullard labelings would have been irrelevant to the gun owner with demand suffering accordingly and accounting for the scarcity of these calibers. Full, correct, solid black powder box by Remington-UMC. 400.00 - 800.00 829 - .40-90 SHARPS BN 2-5/8”. These early UMC Berdan-primed, paper-patched, bottle-neck cartridges are clean & original, still surrounded by their serpentine internal paper wrapping just as they left the factory. 400.00 - 800.00 830 - LOT OF 3: ORIGINAL LEATHER HOLSTER FOR THE LUGER PISTOL. Lot consists of two brown holsters and one black. The black police holster is dated 1916 by Vereinigte; no tools but excellent condition. The dark brown Portugeuse holster is not marked. Lighter brown holster is a scarce Finnish Model 1923 Commercial with no “SA” mark; has rod pouch with rivet belt loops, can be found in the Luger holster book page 80-81 and is in excellent condition with brass buckle (Excellent). 400.00 - 800.00 831 - SCARCE FRAMED UMC CARTRIDGE ADVERTISING FELT. 22 - 1/4” High 19 - 1/8” Wide These felts were used in gun stores at the turn of the century for glass counter tops so the customers could examine the guns without breaking the glass. This large felt features the famous UMC “Growling Grizzly” silk screened in beautiful full color. The felt itself measures 11” x 14” and is custom framed with an overall dimension of 19” x 22”. The piece is in excellent condition. Shows simply no fading of any kind. No moth holes, tears or in-painting. The edges are perfect with the exception of one pinky-sized divot out of bottom left edge. 450.00 - 650.00

Border tooled, double loop and good quality with no makers marks. Bullet loops appear to be .32-20 size. Both are in excellent all original condition and date to the turn of the century or earlier. 500.00 - 700.00 834 - .40-60 MARLIN, WINCHESTER BLACK POWDER AMMO/BOX.

840 - .45 COLT BY FRANKFORD ARSENAL AMMO/BOX. April, 1874 packet, sealed and completely original. The first year that Colt shipped its new Model P of 1873, the famed Single-Action Army was December, 1873. This dated packet is still sealed with its pull-string intact. Such packets were only dated from October, 1873 (rare!) through August, 1874, with none later; therefore, as May and July 1874 are not known to exist, there are only nine month-dated “pure” .45 Colt packets available to collectors. With the introduction of the .45 S&W Schofield into the arsenal, the 1875 and later packets are year-dated only, not month-dated, and contain the shorter Schofield length cartridge with “.45 Revolver Ball” title, rather than the 1873-74 “.45 Colt” callout. This of course allowed use of the same cartridge in both revolver types. All were Benet-primed (internally primed) until 1882. 600.00 - 1,000.00 841 - .40-60 MARLIN, WINCHESTER BLUE AMMO/BOX. Occasionally, Winchester produced blue label (normally green) Black Powder rifle boxes in the 1880’s and 1890’s which are always coveted by collectors. A couple calibers are fairly common in blue (e.g., 50-110 and 45-60), but very few. Box is solid and full of the correct cartridges, all with the desirable “.40-60 MAR. WRACo” headstamp. (Not to be confused with 40-60 WCF). 600.00 - 1,000.00

Another of the Bullard proprietary calibers, the 40-90 was readily recognized due to its distinctive bottle-neck design. Headstamped simply “BULLARD 40-90” with no maker-identifying “UMC”, it is one of the more unusual cartridge offerings of the period. Clean box showing light shelf wear and containing clean, correct and original cartridges. 600.00 - 1,200.00

846 - .32 RIM FIRE SHORT PICTURE AMMO/BOX. Smith, Hall & Farmer was a very rare maker in business during the late Civil War period until a change in ownership and name to Smith, Hall & Buckland in 1866. The label, picturing an S&W spur-trigger revolver, states “Successors to Smith & Wesson in the manufacture of Cartridges”. Label shows some age but box is solid in all respects and contains two original cartridges. 800.00 - 1,500.00 847 - FANTASTIC COLT S.A.A. VISALIA HOLSTER RIG. The Visalia Saddle Co. was formed in 1870 and moved to San Francisco in 1887. This exquisite set of holsters were manufactured in San Francisco; both are maker stamped on back and the belt is also stamped. The holsters are fully tooled and lined with single loop with Montana plug and 2” silver conchos, right side of the belt has a sterling silver eagle; body formed. The belt is also tooled and lined with sterling silver belt buckle, two decorative small buckles, in .44/.45 caliber. This is the finest and most exquisite set of Colt Visalia holsters and would have been an expensive set when originally offered. Each holster is perfectly fitted for a 7-1/2” Colt Single Action Army. There is some light wear to the lining and loose stitching at buckle loop; all other stitching is perfect. A holster rig worthy of finest matched pair of Colts. 800.00 - 1,500.00
845 - .45-85 MARLIN RED LABEL AMMO/BOX. Circa 1890’s. Though not called out on this labeling, this is also the round used in the .45-85 Colt Lightning Magazine Rifle (CLMR). Very light wear but everything readable; cartridges all with correct “UMC 45-85 SH” (for “Solid Head”) headstamp. A rare caliber in seldom-seen red label black powder box. 750.00 - 1,500.00
848 - .45 COLT BY FRANKFORD ARSENAL AMMO/BOX. The first year that Colt shipped its new Model P of 1873, the famed Single-Action Army, this December, 1873 dated packet is still sealed with its pull-string intact. Such packets were only dated from October, 1873 (rare!) through August, 1874, with none later; therefore, as May and July 1874 are not known to exist, there are only nine month-dated “pure” .45 Colt packets available to collectors. With the introduction of the .45 S&W Schofield into the arsenal, the 1875 and later packets are year-dated only, not month-dated, and contain the shorter Schofield length cartridge with “.45 Revolver Ball” title rather than the 1873-74 “.45 Colt” callout.

Smith, Hall & Buckland, circa 1866-69 was the successor company to Smith, Hall & Farmer and retains the “Successors to Smith & Wesson in the manufacture of Cartridges” line. While empty, any box by this seldom encountered maker qualifies as a rarity. Although the back of the lid is missing 3/4” of its edge, the side label is still approximately 85%. 1,000.00 - 1,750.00

Fortunately, while the lower section of the box shows some obvious wear, the labels are actually cleaner than one would expect with the front and left end being entirely readable with only minor scuffs and the lid top and right end being 99%! 1,000.00 - 2,000.00 853 - .44 SHARPS 2-5/8 IN THE RARE “SHARPS RIFLE CO” HARTFORD WHITE BOX OF 5 CARTRIDGES. In all cases within memory, the labels on these boxes are just like this one, calling out “10 Metallic…Cartridges” and “45/100 Calibre” except, normally, the “45” is struck through in ink and over-written “44” and, likewise, the “10” is over-written as “5”. It was very common to find early Sharps boxes changed as to caliber, bullet weight, powder grains, case length and number of cartridges; in fact, on these 1870’s boxes, it’s more common than not. That said, some factory hand missed re-marking this .44 box of five, the most common packaging of this caliber. Circa 1875, the box, label and cartridges all grade excellent. (Excellent). 1,000.00 - 2,000.00 854 - .50-110 EXPRESS (WIN MODEL 1886) AMMO/BOX. Blue label, early black powder express box. Cartridges are exceptionally nice, all with the copper express tube in the nose and headstamped “.50-110 EX”.

In spite of its label callout naming the Remington Rider Pistol, this rare box is most highly sought by collectors of the Chicago and Minneapolis Palm Pistols. With a side-seal approx 85% and the primary (top) label approaching 100%, this box is in excellent condition. In addition, it remains full of the very scarce and original “H” headstamped cartridges. 1,300.00 - 1,800.00

While single cartridges have regularly sold in the $100-200 range since the 1980’s, boxes such as this are virtually unobtainable, the last one seen by us having been found in the early-1990’s and none having been noted in the major auction catalogs since that time.

LOT - 881 881 - FINEST KNOWN UMC FRAMED CARTRIDGE STORE DISPLAY BOARD. 41 - 1/2” High, 54 - 1/2” Wide One of the most desirable of all advertising collectibles are the factory cartridge boards put out to advertise various ammunition. This board was assembled by the Union Metallic Cartridge Co. of Bridgeport, Connecticut circa 1880’s. The original magnificent oak frame features the gesso 3D lettering. Top reads “Trademark UMC” while the bottom reads “Union Metallic Cartridge Co.”, letters are over 2” tall, finished in silver and stand out against the oak frame. The center diamond artwork measure 24”x18” and features a wild antlered game scene. Within the framed borders are well over 100 examples of all the famous cartridges available at that time: there are over ten Sharps cartridges, along with Remington single shot, Ballards, the entire Winchester line and numerous oddball rimfires. The shot section includes paper shells from 4 bore down and brass shells from 4 bore down with a nice separate display of primers and wads. All of the cartridges are original to the board and all but a few have their original ties. This entire piece has been blacklighted inch by inch and there is absolutely no in-painting or repairs within the borders. There are a few minor repairs to the outside edge, noted only for accuracy, none of which extend into the display. The colors are vibrant with no fading. Condition of the frame and gesso is near mint with no repaints. The inside image itself measures 43” x 33” while the entire display 54-1/2” x 41-1/2”. These were produced in very limited numbers during their time frame and only given to the largest and most productive dealers and were never offered to the retail trade. When they are found they are usually in various degrees of disrepair and are often found stripped of their expensive and rare individual cartridges. The UMC board appears to be far scarcer than the usually encountered Winchester boards. If a finer all original cartridge board exists, we have not seen it nor heard of it. Simply put, this large display piece is nearly impossible to obtain and would impossible to improve upon. It is simply breathtaking in all respects and would be a center show piece in any gun room. It is actually handsome enough to make it into the living room. 15,000.00 - 25,000.00

LOT - 990 990 - 19TH CENTURY AMERICAN WROUGHT IRON SLAVE COLLAR. An example of this collar now resides in the Louisiana State Museum. This example, along with lot 991, represent two of the most horrendous slave apparendus ever invented and inflicted on human beings in a civilized society. Most of these were destroyed after the Civil War. This example features the three cowbells. Slaves that attempted to escape had this device attached to their neck, the ringing of the bell allowed the over-seer to know the whereabouts of the sorry individual that bore this albatross, making escape nearly impossible. These items serve as a visual reminder of America’s sordid past, and the mere image of this piece speaks volumes to the extent of cruelty that was dealt out by so-called society gentry. To use the word ‘rare’ is an understatement in that few exist outside of state institutions. A simple search on the internet numerous images of this collar in use. One particularly sordid photo features a slave at auction wearing this collar and completely shackled in a manner in which today cattle are treated with more respect. Hand wrought iron neck slave collar with bells. Measures 30” diameter, collar is 5-1/2” diameter, stands 11” in height. (Excellent). 6,000.00 - 8,000.00

LOT - 991 991 - 19TH CENTURY AMERICAN WROUGHT IRON SLAVE COLLAR. One of the most macabre and cruelest reminders of the injustice and treatment during the Slavery era in the American South prior to the Civil War, these horrendous collars would be attached to runaway slaves and/or maroons. They served several purposes, if the slave would attempt to run away the long bars would get stuck in the trees and bushes, impeding escape; secondly, they served as a deterrent to other slaves lest they attempt escape. These early torture collars are nearly nonexistent today outside of a museum, as most were destroyed after the war. There are numerous images of this exact style collar that can be seen on the internet and in Ken Burn’s documentary. The consignor states this piece was found in South Carolina, but we have no provinence to that fact. This collar serves as a permanent reminder to Man’s inhumanity to fellow human beings and is a relic of much importance (lest we forget). Hand wrought iron neck slave collar with four arms with protruding spikes on each arm. Collar is 6” in diameter. (Excellent). 6,000.00 - 8,000.00

1011 - GOSSIP HELMET. This is a torture mask used as a punishment on gossips. They could be made to wear it for a few hours or days or in drastic cases, until they starved to death. These torture and shaming instruments were used in Western Europe, primarily Germany and Austria, as punishment for minor crimes. They were used from the 15th into the 19th century. This piece was acquired by the owner from a small Bavarian museum specializing in torture devices. The owner passed away and the surviving family are quietly selling the contents. The way the mask worked, it was placed over the head and closed at the back with a lock, a protruding tongue suppressor from the inside went into the mouth, thus making it impossible to speak coherently and it also made it impossible to eat. The technical name for this piece is “Brunk”. 3,000.00 - 4,000.00

1013 - SUNDIAL CANNON. These were made as a gimmick to the wealthy to show to guests. Anyone who had a large strolling garden would have a marble pedestal with this sitting on top. You can set the time you want the cannon to go off by changing the angle of the magnifying glass to an arch, creating the desired degree to enable the touch-hole on the cannon to be ignited by the heat from the sun going through the magnifying glass. The cannon would then go off on the desired time of day. A lot of times it would be at lunchtime, announcing that food is being served. Obviously these are quite rare and this one is an exceptionally ornate piece. Metal base, which is also calibrated by the hours and minutes. Apparatus and miniature cannon all brass. This is so nothing would rust in the rain while it was sitting outside. The base has a nice grey patina, like you see on pewter so it may possibly be pewter. The base is deeply marked by the maker “RUOSSEAU FECIT A PARIS”. Ruosseau was a well known gun maker in his time. Fine condition. 3,500.00 - 4,500.00 LOT - 1013 298

The patent for this trap was granted on Feb. 15, 1898 and is nicely featured on page 81 of the Dec., 2008 issue of Sporting Collectibles magazine in an article written by Terry McBurney. Invented and patented by Charles Wisner, the founder of the Flint Reel Co. Wisner lived between 1850 and 1915 and was a very colorful and interesting historical figure who worked as a lawyer, architect, automobile builder, and reel manufacturer during his lifetime.

The trap is constructed of collapsible celluloid panels with brass hinges and can be erected and secured simply with metal rods. It has remained in its assembled state for many years and will be shipped in the assembled state.

This is certainly a museum quality piece and one of the most well preserved delicate pre – 1900 tackle items this writer has ever observed.

Truly a remarkable work of art, offered with a strong attribution to the world famous maker of knives, hatchets and decorative iron works, Mr. William Scagel, this is like no other spear we have seen. It has the USA marking etched into the handle but the other Scagel maker’s marks were removed by the original owner because it was stated that he did not want someone else’s name on his spear. The torch mark still remains where the Scagel signature markings would have been. Written attribution is supplied by two top Scagel experts. The spear was found and purchased many years ago only a few hundred yards from William Scagel’s Fruitport, Michigan workshop by the current owner (letter of provenance from current owner also included). Of driven key construction the oversize key also becomes the shoulder of this well balanced spear. The all steel handle includes sections that range from round to square to octagon. The octagon shape is carried through as it re-emerges to create the center tine. Amazing thought and creativity combine with Scagel’s legendary skill to create this incredible spear. Overall 71” L, Head 5 ¾” W. The very heavy leather point protector of riveted construction also appears to be by the hand of Mr. William Scagel. 15,000.00 - 20,000.00

As pictured on pg. 176 of the Blauser /Mierzwa Fish Hooks, Traps & Lures ID & Value Guide Likely the most novel of all fishing lure inventions to date is this unique bullet firing lure patented by inventor Emmitt Scott of Swainsboro, Ga. in 1957. It consists of a spring loaded firing pin and short barrel connected to a fish hook trip line for triggering the device upon the strike of a fish. Using a .32 cal. bullet, the fisherman could choose blanks to stun the fish or live ammunition to kill it, both to ensure that it could not get away before it could be reeled in. Not surprisingly, this invention never made it into commercial production so very limited numbers were ever produced. The two lures being offered in this auction are two of only a dozen ever made and two of only three still known to exist. Both were purchased directly from the family of Emmitt Scott by Bill Blauser 20 years ago. Included with each is a copy of the patent drawings and patent description, a newspaper article from 1956 showing Emmitt pictured with his invention, an unpublished article written by Bill Blauser entitled “A Fishing Hook Which Shoots Bullets” and an enlarged photo post card of Emmitt. 1,500.00 - 2,500.00 1054 - EMMITT SCOTT’S BULLET FIRING 22 CAL. “SURE-CATCH-DEVICE” TYPE II.

LOT - 1215 1215 - .44 AMERICAN PICTURE BOX BY C.D. LEET, Circa 1873. Picturing a Smith & Wesson American #3 revolver, this is the only known red label box printed in “gold leaf” with chromo-lithography technique. Very difficult to photo or copy under the best of circumstances, the print on this box has faded making a photo nearly impossible. A bit of history-- Along with Crittenden & Tibbals, Leet sold out to Schuyler, Hartley & Graham after the Civil War to form the Union Metallic Ctdg & Cap Co (later, UMC and then Remington-UMC). It IS known that Leet patented (with Hotchkiss) a shotshell and again surfaced with his new company in 1872, during which time these .44 Americans were produced along with his primary business of manufacturing shotshells. Other than the shotshells, THESE ARE THE ONLY KNOWN CENTERFIRE CARTRIDGES EVER TO HAVE BEEN PRODUCED BY C.D. LEET (which, by 1875, had disappeared from public records). Included with this lot is a copy of the orig C.D.Leet invoice to Smith & Wesson for 4000 rds (that’s only 80 boxes!) dated July 23, 1873. These were probably for S&W’s trials with their new #3 revolver. There’s no evidence of any more having been made by Leet and this box is one of only 2 known, the other rumored to be in a European museum. The cartridges themselves are unique to Leet, quite distinctive from any other maker. Well-known cartridge expert Robert Buttweiler, who used to do high-end cartridge auctions in the 1980’s & ‘90’s, says of this Leet box: “It is the most significant box I ever handled”. 6,000.00 - 12,000.00
