Kevin, thanks for the rehash of the auction of John Phillip Sousa's AAH pigeon gun. It was a great day at the auction house, unfortunately not for me. For years I have been on the trail of Sousa's original Lindner Daly Diamond Grade single trap that he shot before his Ithaca was made. I have known for years of its location and the history of its ownership since Sousa bought the Ithaca in 1917. This year at the Southern Side by Side, I was able to add the great gun to my collection. His Ithaca single, of course, as Chuck says, is in the ATA Hall of Fame Museum.
