Chris, Chris, maybe you all and Bill could do a Parker Pages article on the subject with photos of some of the guns used?

Some Jack Fanning infro here, with a pic of he and Neaf Apgar courtesy of Chris. A flinch ended his career as a competitor.

I appreciate all the responses to my question. I'll try to get a better picture of the stampings and a scan of the letter later today and post them. Here's a photo of the letter. I think you will be able to read it.

Sorry, Bruce, but I was in the middle of the research project when I needed some minor access to the PGCA research collection. The board of directors and the research committee refused that access and the project ended. Maybe Chris Lien and I will prepare an article for the Double Gun Journal. I'm sure most of our members are subscribers to that publication. Thanks for asking, though.
