There is a large shop named Allbright's in Easton Maryland that could get you started. I say STARTED. I would use that as a springboard.

If there is provenance as you say of him being an Abercrombie salesman, that would interest the heck out of some collectors. See my article in the last parker Pages about an Abercrombie Parker.

The collection may well be a candidate for a top level auction house like Julias who would be willing to pick up the whole collection at your doorstep.

John, if your father was affiliated with A & F, I'd contact Bob Beach at Griffin & Howe to see what he knows about your father and the guns.
