R. Strosin Progress Photos
 

Thanks Rich for the referral:

That's a pretty impressive floorplate.

Nice ! Has the L been added or was it there .

I think it was already there, is an unfinished repro, I don't remember it though, not sure what it refers to. Mr. Strosin has been recovering from Lyme Disease but seems to be "back in the groove".

Maybe for a SST and push forward means left barrel ,Im no repro guy . Just a guess

After reading those credits, I am exhausted and may have to have a nap. Bob is a real nice guy. I look forward to seeing him at the Northeast Shoot next year, or wherever. Unfortunately, we missed him this year because of his illness.

:envy:That is some really nice scroll work! Well balanced and fantastic workmanship. Great backbones on those scrolls, and the shading is outstanding on those leaves. Overall smooth flowing well planned design that really showcases this engravers skills. I am an amateur engraver myself and really appreciate fine work like this gentleman produces, and hope to one day develop my talent to equal this level of workmanship.
