H + M gun case

[John Bastiani]

Has anybody heard of a H+M marked gun case. Whatever the Initials mean-its a well built gun case according to the owner that holds a high quality gun.

After researching I found that Winchester contracted this company- Herkert and Meisel to make trunk cases for the model 21. I was looking at a Grand American model 21-20 gauge this week and it was in one of these H+M cases. The cases have a blue interior and most of the 21's that I have seen are in a burgundy color. There is also a picture of this same case that I saw on page 176 of the Winchester model 21 book by Schwing. Does anybody else have one of these H + M cases and does it have the blue interior?

I think I have a LOM case with blue interior, John. I'll have to look and see if it is marked H +M. Maybe I'll be able to do that today.
