We've seen it in the 1879 catalog. Let's see if Dean's is the same year. For those who are unfamiliar with the Shelltop style, named because the shells are kept in a row in the top of the case. The case opens up, gun and compartments on the bottom. The top swings open, a panel lifts up, and the shells and more compartments are there. All shells loaded, the case is heavy. They are really not made sturdy enough, its like some kind of fiberboard material, and things tend to break and rip. Not to mention being over 100 years old.
