Both are very nice cases. He is a true artist! Does he still include the lighter color of the earlier case as an option?

So I am at Marvin's a couple years ago and he is repairing a double rifle case. Its old, beat up , seen a lot of hard use. The case has the following initials on its top:


B. v B.


I knew instantly what it was, and I'll see who else does.

Wonder if Homer ever got a chance to shoot with him? In the movie they only met briefly.

Bruno von Bich is known to be a huge double gun collector. Especially double rifles. Wish I still had my Westley .280FNE

The B v B are the initials of Bror von Blixen, an Africaaner professional hunter memorialized in Out of Africa . His working rifle and its case are now owned by a US collector .

I have an old case but unfortunately None of my doubles will fit in it. The latches on it are patented in the 1870s if I remember correctly. There is some kind of a signature on the top but I cant make it out. I thought about having someone reconfigure the inside of it so my Manton hammer double would fit in it. I think it was made to hold a small bore hammerless double.

I will be sending him the original case for my Hussey as soon as I can collect enough beer cans to pay the bill. His work is exquisite.
