William Wellington Greener was the author of "THE GUN" and a HUGE self promoter. His company made a wide variety of gun grades from the very plain "farmers or game keepers" all the way to very highly embellished "exhibition" grade. All are of good quality in both finish and workmanship. Legend has is that Greener Trademark, the elephant, originated when a circus pachaderm got loose in the streets of London and Greener was sent to dispatch it. Many of his guns made their way to this sine of the pond.
Best Regards, George
