Thanks Bob. Foster lived about three miles from me at 71 Chestnut Street here in Andover, until his death in 1941.
That same pose with a different make of shotgun also appears in NEGS on page 111. We have also seen it in other publications with different guns and different shooters. I guess it must have been one of Foster’s favorite themes.
Thanks for sharing it.
