Between 1914 and 1922, Annie gave exhibitions and taught shooting at Pinehurst during the winter. Annie and Frank Butler were in a automobile accident in 1921, and she wore a steel brace on her right leg thereafter, and she was unlikely to have been able to quail hunt. No record of the gun she is holding here



The Hunter Arms shipping ledger shows her name (not Frank Butler) with the 12g 1926 Ideal; unfortunately there are no dimensions recorded -
feather-weight (no options)
started March 25, 1926
proofed and patterned May 20, 1926
finished June 4, 1926
shipped June 4, 1926 to J.P. Dannenfelser

Of course, it may have been ordered as a gift for someone.
