Mark, as I said, there is stock book information on your gun but key info is not readable which would tell you the grade, gauge, and barrel length of that gun. The frame size is also not readable. You will get the stock dimensions, stock grip type, and the weight of the gun. This information plus the obvious engraving, barrel steel, barrel length with rib inscription, blank space at the end of the rib, ejectors, would make any potential buyer confident that it is a VHE, 28ga. gun. Your call if you want a research letter.

I got the information from Griffin and Howe
They give a lot of information about the gun and the original owners
I just wanted to see that it had original records
They ever tell where the guy that bought it is buried
TY Chuck for telling me to get in touch with them
Mr Beach was great to deal with

My 28 was also sold by A&F. It's sn is a little higher than yours. You will notice that the A&F ledger page Mr. Beach provided you is for like grade guns, VH in your case but I believe their ledger pages mixed ejector and non ejector guns.
My GHE28 was purchased by a banker on his lunch hour. His boss accompanied him to A&F, and, as the ledger page indicates, also bought a GH grade gun (consecutive sales of G grade)
The banker's boss must have told him what to buy, because, when he speaks, people listen. His boss was EF Hutton.

I don't think there's a copyright on the moniker C.O.B. Edgar. Maybe the other one would share?
