Did you mean Edmund Osthaus?

I have not published any prints

Which ones did you get. ( I won't ask for pictures :rolleyes:)

After asking -I realized the description will likely be. It's the one with two setters :rotf:

Randy the VHE 32 inch gun sounds nice.
I saw the Fox Kevin mentioned and it's a beauty. He ended up consigning it to Steve Barnett and that's the gentleman who bought my DH live bird gun.

I shot 500 targets over three and a half days with a cart at Drakes for $225:)

Rich it's just a solid original gun with a lot of choke and cc in the protected areas only. Bought it because I'm a sucker for long barreled small bores and it can take a little pressure off the D grade 32" 16. Fits me good and I shot it well on the practice 5 stand.

Rick only one print has two setters the other has one setter and a hunter with flushing quail. They were advertisements for United Shoe Service in Wallingford Conn circa 1940's. The quail/setter is by Hintermeister the two setters are Osthaus.

1887 #1 frame 12ga Parker hammergun from Mr. Nickerson
2 issues of DGJ (one I didn't know I already had)
Red Deep River t-shirt
LC Smith Collectors t-shirt (would have bought a Parker, didn't see any)
3 dents raised by Mr. Hosford
6 steak tacos

Wanted to buy a beat up PH to refurbish, but no one was buying what I was selling to pay for it.

I dodged the rain and quickly took some pics of the CHE 16. One frame 30 inch barrels M/F. It still retains quite a bit of color and the pheasant on the floor plate is a big improvement over the more common stag.

Let's see, I bought 5 flats of shells from RST in 12, 16, 20 and .410. Why .410 you might ask? Because this beauty also followed me home. 4lbs 1oz, Charles Hellis, Straight Grip, 26" choked full and full. I also dropped off a gun to have some work done, and left a case with Kevin to be fixed up as well. Thanks to a fellow Fox member, I also got to shoot a round at Drake Landing with a screaming 20ga Fox Sterlingworth with 32" barrels (Hens Teeth)! On Sunday when everyone left, I tossed 14 empty bottles of bourbon, and two empty boxes of Cigars in the trash. :shock: All in all, it was a good weekend!
