Winchester Single “W” Cartridge Board.

Lot # 156 (Sale Order: 154 of 399)      

Board is framed in oak. Panel is marked on top “WINCHESTER” in red over “REPEATING ARMS COMPANY” in gold. Bottom of board reads “NEW HAVEN. CONN. U.S.A. / NEW YORK SAN FRANCISCO”. Center of “W” has two ducks hanging. Left part of “W” shows a vignette of a hunter with an Indian scout. Right part of “W” shows a cowboy laying on the ground over his dead horse firing a Winchester rifle. Cartridges are all labeled. Board also shows some primers. Shotshells are on both sides and bottom. This board is referred to as the "Single W" with wood grain background. CONDITION: Very good condition. Frame is intact with some scratching overall. Backboard is clean. Vignettes are clear. Upon close inspection of all surfaces with a blacklight there is a 3/4" spot of restoration on the right vignette, a 2" inpainted scratch on hanging ducks; the only places of restoration we could find on the paper area. Surface is clean, all cartridges intact. There are a few small scatter blemishes in the paper that could easily be touched up but have not, as they are very minor. This is an extremely clean example of the rare and desirable 19th century cartridge boards given out to Winchester's largest dealers only and were never offered for sale to the general public. They suffer a poor survival rate as most were destroyed or cartridges removed. Due to their large size, many were relegated to basements and attics where they were left to decades of changing environment, temperature and moisture; this board has suffered none of those effects. This is not a standard shippable item and will require an oversized/breakable quote provided by Morphy Auctions.

Lot of 10: Consecutively Numbered Unfired Colt Custom Shop Single Action Army Revolvers in Custom Di

Lot # 157 (Sale Order: 155 of 399)      

This collection proves that if you want something bad enough, have the means to purchase and the diligence to persevere numerous obstacles, that dreams can and do come true. In short, this collection of ten Colt Single Action Army Revolvers is the only such collection ever assembled. Historians will point to the late 19th century when ten special order Colt Single Action Army Revolvers were produced but they were all .45 caliber, nickel finish and engraved with 5-1/2" barrels and the serial numbers were not consecutive. This was a mythical run of Colts that many believe the Dalton gang ended up procuring and were used in the famous robbery at Coffeyville, Kansas of which three revolvers from that order still exist. But we go back to the fact that they were all the same and not consecutive, and cannot be compared to this current collection whereas each revolver has a special feature or combination of features, making each unique and one-of-a-kind. If any reader has ever tried to get just a single Colt from the custom gun shop with features they were no longer making, you know how difficult it was to have them overlook the discontinued items and produce them for you, regardless. Now, consider at the time the first order was placed in 1988 and the last firearm was completed on September 21st, 1995 and requested they reserve ten consecutive serial numbers from regular production for a period of over eight years and the idea that was formulated to make each one unique took a tremendous amount of patience and compliance from both sides of the table. As if coming up with ten consecutive unique Colt Army revolvers was not challenge enough alone, let's examine the firewalls that were thrown into this span of time. Upon placing the first order in 1988, Colt was in the middle of a five year Union strike, making available labor spotty at best. Then in 1992, Colt filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Protection where it wallowed until sold in September of 1994. It is well known that a smooth running company retains its figureheads for long period of time and that when head management changes at a rapid pace, quality and production spiral out of control. So it was during this era that these Colts were made, saw the coming and going of four different presidents: Gary W. French, Richard F. Gamble, Ronald Stillwell and Ronald C. Whitaker. In fact, there was no president when the last gun was ready for presentation and delivery. Eventually, the vacant office was filled by Donald E. Zilkha. The Colt Custom Gun Shop, renowned for the master craftsmen it employed, was in upheaval as well. Lou Sharp, the Custom Sales Shop manager would resign and Al DeJohn, founder of the shop, retired in 1990. DeJohn was replaced for a short period of time by Joe Bischof and again by Jim Alaimo. Alaimo soon resigned as well, and the custom shop responsibilities were divided into production and sales with Paul Zamsky appointed custom shop supervisor and Lynn Shea custom shop sales supervisor. In 1992, the company planned a consolidation of the two Hartford plants that was not completed until May 31st, 1994 with the custom shop among the last to vacate the Hartford Armory building. The turmoil at the Colt Factory made it nearly impossible to get an order such as this processed, a major problem being the withdrawal of serial numbers in this range, the suspending of production of the black powder style frames, shortage of supply of one piece ivory stocks, and the return of the custom shop guideline that did not allow customers to select a specific engraver. Every gun in this collection is a Custom Gun Shop endeavor; each remains unfired in its original box. It is also interesting to note that the last revolver manufactured was delivered personally by Jeffrey R. Crute, Vice President of Sales and Marketing. During these eight years, Colt mainstays such as Marty Huber, Kathy Hoyt and Beverly Haynes continued diligently to keep this project on point. To conclude, it was a near miracle that the set of Colts that dreams are made of was ever finished at all. Since their completion, this one-of-a-kind and unique collection has been featured in its entirety in two books. You can find images of the complete collection with brief descriptions and serial numbers on page 316 and 317 in the book titled "Colt and Its Collectors" as well as in "The Colt Engraving Book Vol. II" by R.L. Wilson on pages 804 and 805. Once the collection was completed, simply sticking them in a drawer was no way to display something that took almost a decade to create, so a custom wood and glass case was built specifically for this collection.

(C) Factory Engraved Colt Single Action Army Revolver with Ivory Grips (1904).

Lot # 159 (Sale Order: 157 of 399)      

Shipped on January 21st, 1904. This factory engraved Colt was sent in a shipment of three guns to H&D Folsom Arms Company, New York with a 5-1/2" barrel, .45 caliber, nickel finish, factory engraved and stocks not listed. The stocks were probably put on by the dealer and are beautifully aged two piece ivory. Cuno A. Helfricht was in charge of the Colt Engraving Department during this era. When referencing the book "Colt Engraving" by Wilson, the Cuno Helfricht chapter has every aspect of this engraving including chicken feet, sunburst, Moravian star, punch dot background, scrolls and borders. A very similar example can be seen on page 295, bottom photo, serial No. 193469 which is nearly identical. This would be considered a Class C engraving job with engraving on every major part of the gun including barrel, housing, frame, cylinder, trigger guard, backstrap and loading gate. CONDITION: Overall revolver retains approximately 60% of the original nickel finish. The majority of wear is on the cylinder which blends to a dark grey patina, and the forward part of the frame from firing. Some scattered aging about the barrel. Flaking on grip straps. It has never been touched, all original finish with razor sharp legends. The ivory grips have beautifully aged with dark lines and have turned a mellow color, complete with no chips or cracks. Action has all four Colt clicks and locks up like a bank vault. Strong, clean rifled bore. A very nice example of a classic Helfricht engraved turn of the century Colt Single Action Army.

(C) Boxed Colt Python Double Action Revolver (1962).

Lot # 168 (Sale Order: 166 of 399)      

Comes in an old wood grain two piece box with proper yellow end label, matching test target, paperwork, screwdriver and cleaning rod; it appears as though there is a number at the bottom of the box but it is too faint to read. This revolver features vent rib, solid lug, six shot, double action, blued finish, serrated trigger, wide spur target hammer, matte rib, target adjustable sight, early oil finished gold medallion "smiley face" checkered walnut grips. CONDITION: Gun exhibits a ghost drag line. No signs of any wear at muzzle. All original blue on inside frame at forcing cone. Gun has been fired as you can see some light residue and a minor burn ring on end of cylinder, but is in 99% near new condition inside and out. Grips are near mint. Beautiful, early gun with box and all that comes with it. As the area of Python collecting defines itself, there should be a large premium for the early near mint guns as the amount of new in box post-80 Pythons is plentiful, the amount of near new in box pre-1970 Pythons is a fraction of that amount. Rarely seen and will rise to the top of collecting circles as more and more collectors become educated in this iconic revolver.
