While I am a dawg fan I'll have to disagree with you on that one. There THOUSANDS of "famous" people in the world nowadays that make millions of dollars and I'm sure I wouldn't want a pair of shoes that MJ's wife wore. However, if I were a painting collector and I found a painting that had been in the Gates household or Buffet household ,whether he or his wife purchased it , it would be very ,very cool. I don't come from a well off family but I have to believe that just being an Astor back in the 20's was much bigger than being a celebrity today. Even if Vincent didn't buy the gun himself, it was still in his household for a period of time and I wouldn't be surprised if he shot it himself. Its speculation but for all we know he could have told her to pick it up. I honestly believe there was way more of a chance of a presidential figure handling that gun once Frelinghuysen bought it than when Ms. Astor had it. The Senator was kicking around a lot with past ,present and future presidents back in that time frame. Either way, find me another 28g a 00 frame that was owned by the Astor family
