I believe George Worthington shot also. Use la84foundation.com to figure out what George was doing around that time. When using the search function, specify "sporting life" and use "george worthington cleveland" to eliminate a bunch of irrelevant information. You may also just use "worthington" to get information that does not include his first name. Always select the "text version" so your guy's name is highlighted.

Sounds like a heck of a gun. Several years back I bought an unused Redhead pad on Ebay. The original box had a Worthington price tag on it. Pad is long gone but think I still have the box. Best I can remember they were a hardware or department store.

Congrat's George, A early 2- barrel set is a great find, When you get it back from Jim show us some Pictures or bring it to the Southern for us to drool over! and by the way drool will not hurt damascus barrels that are wiped down in Preserve oil, although it is as hard to find as that great gun you just found!

Thanks to All who responded: He's about done with the barrels & I believe that it will be completely done by the Southern. I need a good period two barrel case to put it in if anyone here has ne laying around.
Best Regards, George |
