What is the serial number of the "earliest Grade 2 ten gauge"? I missed one at an auction this week. I was not outbid, I was distracted and it slipped by. That is a wonderful trio. Craig Larter from the Fox Collectors Association took pictures of another high condition trio at the 2009 Vintagers. I believe it consisted of two pre 1913 Damascus Ideals and a Grade 2 or 3 transition gun. Craig and I own almost matching Ideals. Mine is an 11 pounder on the big frame.
