Brian -I don't believe a repair has been attempted yet. I have viewed it a few times but don't know much about its history. I appreciate the reply - you do great work.
Bruce - thank you for the comparative pictures. If I do buy it I would much prefer to keep the original stock and good to know that it would be less than a restock. It's also going to need end work as it has been cut to allow for a rubber pad.
It is part of a package deal with a B grade that has the floral type scroll work. The B also has a short stock and will need work. The B is from 1903 the A is from 1910. I will be ordering letters from Chuck next week and then might try some horse trading. Thanks gentlemen, much appreciated.
