Green seems to have been an respected inventor as well as a good quality maker, however there are hundreds of true makers and iron mongers names on 19th century British guns. Only a small handful actually have books about them

Bothroyd's reference books are likely the best source of infomation

there is some background here

I figured he had a book about him. I seen on the double gun forum that it was said all of e.c green records were preserved . unlike my bonehill who decided to destroy their records . I have not ever seen this name of shotgun before , I guess because they were handmade and didn't turn out a lot of doubles .

We need a better resolution image showing a longer tube segment, but by the size of the 'scrolls' it is very likely 'English Two Stripe'
