I have recently received a copy of "The Best of Nash Buckingham" edited by George Bird Evans. I'm only through the intro, but it is obvious the GBE thought a lot of Buckingham. This particular book is interesting in that it is inscribed by John Olin to a friend's father.
At least half of what GBE wrote about Harold Money and his family on pages 65 and 66 goes from misleading to dead wrong.

Destry is right on that Dear John-:, Nash Buckingham's Letters to John Bailey is a great read.

handloaded Western "Leader" 3-inch 12 ga. shells, saying that they were among the contents of Nash's desk at home collected after his death
LEADER were Winchester shells --



If the shells were Winchester factory loaded the head stamp was Winchester LEADER --



If the cases were sold by Winchester as NPEs the head stamp was 1901 LEADER --



Western Cartridge Co.'s premium high-brass shell was the RECORD --
