The Super-X 2 7/8 inch 10-gauge load isn't in a Western Cartridge Co. catalog dated March 2, 1925, but is in one dated January 1, 1927. I don't have access to any Western Cartridge Co. paper dated 1926.
The first 1926 NID period Ithaca Gun Co. catalog states "In a dainty little .410 it is a delightful gun for "a lady fair" and in the big super 10 bore it is THE water fowl gun "PAR EXCELLENCE"." That statement was still in the early 1932 Ithaca Gun Co. catalog that didn't yet include the Magnum-Ten. In the second 1932 Ithaca Gun Co. catalog it is changed to "In a dainty little .410 it is a delightful gun for "a lady fair" and in the big super or Magnum 10 bore it is THE water fowl gun "PAR EXCELLENCE"."
