You might be right Chuck. I thought it might be a LC Smith.

Good eye, Chuck. Looks like a Grade 7 Knick.

The lead can be reclaimed and the revenue generated by a reclamation is substantial. It is also a proven fact that where there is little or no "acid rain" fallout there is no lead leeching at all... in fact, here in the Northeast where there is a lot more acid rain there is still no measurable lead leeching in the groundwater beneath shooting fields.

The lady third from the left is Frances King in about 1960. She shot a Knick and won the women's GA Champion of Champions race in '62. I'm pretty certain hers is a Grade 4.

Great observation, but which picture?

I don't know if it still exists, but back in the fifties and sixties King put up the money for a v nice silver trophy that went to the Grand American women's high over-all winner.

Frances King also appears in the third photo, fourth from the right.

I did a little more digging. She hailed from Atlanta and was an active shooter at least back into the forties. I had previously thought that the King trophy given to the Grand American High All Around woman was a revolving trophy, this based on its generous size, about 18-20" in height. But in the past week or so of researching I have seen the trophy in several forms, so it must have been individually crafted each year.

I found one picture of her with the ubiquitous Model 12, but all others show her with the more familiar Ithaca
