The AHE sold at Amoskeag is only one of many $300 dollar guns shipped to the Columbian Exposition in Chicago. The shipment was over 100 guns, many $200, $150, and $100 dollar guns too. It would be great to compare the engravings on these guns if we could get members who own these guns to show pictures of them. Did Gough engrave all of these guns and were they all unique in there style and format? Parker must have started building these guns well in advance of the Exposition. You can't build these guns overnight.
