Default Trojan Stock Finish......

......on the buttplate? My 1929 vintage Trojan has varnish(?) on the edge of the buttplate, as though the stockmakers carried the finish from the wood to the buttplate. I have been going through various auction websites, looking at Trojans. Many of the Trojans being auctioned have the same appearance with aged varnish on the buttplate. The finish on my stock is quite old, based on the 'crazed' appearance. Would the factory have applied the finish like that after the buttplate was fitted? TPS does not go into that kind of detail concerning final application. As always, Cheers!
