Fox was a Winchester rep using a 1897, but that looks to be a double gun Dean. The plots thickens further

He was shooting for Winchester in 1902

He was in the shoot off for the 1901 GAH at Live Birds using a Winchester

Without checking reference material, I agree with Chris that it is Frank Butler. By the way, the Marshall presentation gun is a Cashmore Nitro model. I don't think the gun he shot in the two GAH victories was a Nitro model. The presentation gun has been outed and is apparently in a US collection at this time.

I believe Chris and Bill are correct

I wonder if we can get the owner of the Tom Marshall Presentation Cashmore to post on here? This is an important gun and it should be "out there" for us to study.

In late December 1904 Ansley resigned from Philadelphia Arms Co. and in 1905 was busy getting the A.H. Fox Gun Co. going. His days with Winchester were in 1900, 1901 and part of 1902.

He started out in 1900 representing Winchester's ammo but shooting a Parker. Along about August 1900, the big W got him shucking a Model 1897.
