There were two good articles on W.H. Baker in The Gun Report. One by A. C. Atterbury in Volume 35, Number 6, November 1989, "Renowned Gunmaker W.H. Baker" and Volume 36, Number 8, January 1991, "New Notes on William H. Baker" by H.J. Swinney. They are of course heavily pre Baker Gun & Forging Co. There was a good article that covered all of the management upheavals at Baker Gun & Forging Co. in the April 1908 issue of Field and Stream.

Allow me to plug Daryl, who who co-wrote (w/Don Hardin) probably the most complete article I've read on Bakers in the 1997 Gun Illustrated.
Separately, of all the guns I ever passed on, the one that eats at me the most was a Paragon with two dogs on either side that was fantastically engraved. I had my Lefever goggles on that day and was temporarily not seeing other good guns clearly. NDG |
