Maybe these??

I think I read somewhere the Parker on the workbench in the next to last picture with the BTFE was/is a BHE. It looks like it has a vent rib with twin ivories.

Read somewhere that Gray Cooper was known as a poor shot, because his movie contract said he could not wear glasses in public and contacts were not around yet.

Top picture with the roosters the gun looks like a Remington 32.

In the picture with that other guy the gun looks like the profile of a Winchester 21.

Interesting..... He's not wearing glasses in any of these pictures and those roosters are believers that he's at least a fair shot.

I think the other "guy" is E. Hemingway.

I once saw a photo op picture of John Kerry, when he was a presidential candidate, carrying a gun and water foul he purportedly shot. Remember, not all you see is as it seems, especially when Hollywood or politicians are involved.
