Dean,
You could also buy any tags for my guns and donate them to my firearms relief foundation for wayward straight grip 20 gauges. Just a thought. |

The reason for my previous post is supported by this picture taken in I believe 1927 the "Murderers Row" years of the Yankees. This picture was taken at the same time the picture posted previously. I bought both of these copies from Dennis Wolfe a few Vintagers ago.

Dave,
Don't laugh but I recognize the "Babe" on the right. Who are the other two gents? |

I would venture to say that your picture Dave, and the group photo on the previous page with the "Babe" were both taken on the same day.... same car as the one on the left in the first picture... same clothes... look for other similarities.

Richard thanks for sharing this information.
170703 is a DHE with 34 inch barrels, straight grip, no safety, large grip, 1 3/8 x 2 x 14 3/4. The order states engrave one large duck on floor plate. The guard bow was engraved "Made to order for W. H. Wilshire Los Angeles, CA". This order is almost a half page. duBray was the salesman and the gun was discounted to $62.50. WFP agreed to the discount. duBray sold lots of these long barrel guns to the west coast market. Mark |
