Lot of 2: Danish and Rifle Stick Grenades.

Lot # 1427 (Sale Order: 426 of 448)      

Lot consists of: (A) A dual-purpose variant of the World War II German GewehrSprenggranate 30 rifle grenade, this version has the added pull friction fuze installed under the screw-on base. The pull-friction fuze is very similar B.Z. 24 used with the German stick grenades and allows the grenade to be used normally as a rifle grenade or if needed as a hand grenade. This example is in good condition, with tool marks on the nose fuze and about 50% of original paint and markings. (B) Following the end of WWII large stockpiles of weapons were left in many of the previously occupied countries. In many cases a common practice was to simply adopt the materials into existing stocks, re-marking them for domestic recognition and handling purposes. This grenade is a typical example, the Danish Spränghandgranat M/24T. The letter "T" at M24T, stands for "Tysk" ("German"). A late production German Stielhandgranate 24, it has the typical post-war Danish markings featuring gray paint, a yellow band at the top of the body and a large black 24 on the side. In very good/fine condition, there is a heavy scrape on one portion of the stick. Paint is in reasonable condition at about 75% and the pull string and ceramic bead remain in the handle. Condition: Dimensions:

Highly Sought World War I German Stick Grenade.

Lot # 1429 (Sale Order: 428 of 448)      

An early copy of the 1916 World War I German stick grenade, this one has the pressed steel cover on the head as from the German 1915, with the standard screw cap stick found on the 1916 models.

The pull string and bead are present, with the lesser seen clear glass bead instead of the ceramic. The stick joint to the body is bent, placing the stick at a slight angle to the body.

Extremely Rare Japanese Improvised Cartridge Case Grenade.

Lot # 1433 (Sale Order: 432 of 448)      

One of the grenades specifically described by the previous owner as part of his personal recoveries from the India/Burma theaters during World War II. This improvised grenade is documented in the British “Japanese Ammunition Leaflets” compiled and printed at Kirkee, India in 1945. The grenade is improvised from an emptied Japanese 25mm anti-aircraft cartridge case. The case has an improvised brass cap at the mouth, with wires extending through the cap and attaching to a short piece of time fuse which goes through the cap to the inside of the cartridge case. The cap is easily removed from the cartridge case, on the underside of the cap is an empty rifle cartridge case, with what appears to be an improvised crimp at the neck (open). The time fuse appears to enter the rifle case, which presumably served as an initiator for the grenade. The headstamp of the cartridge case could not be confirmed without potential damage to the fuse, but the case appears to be consistent with a .303 British. While the fuse is very short, the grenade is in excellent condition and combined with the history makes a truly unique piece. Condition: Dimensions:

Lot of 2: Unknown Anti-Personnel Grenades Possibly South American.

Lot # 1437 (Sale Order: 436 of 448)      

Lot consists of: (A) This is an unknown grenade which has so far eluded all attempts to identify it. Looking typical of 1970’s-80’s construction, the pale blue plastic outer shell has been roughly removed on approximately one quarter section, exposing small fragmentation balls in a plastic matrix. On the bottom someone has hand written “Peru?” Several features of the grenade are reminiscent of Arges grenades; it may be a contract piece.

It is constructed of translucent white plastic and has an inert fill of cement-like material. The grenade and fuze have no markings. It is in excellent condition with no corrosion or damage, the fuze is complete with a dummy detonator. Condition: Dimensions:

FANTASTIC CONDITION E. GAYLORD COLT DRAGOON FLAP HOLSTER.

Lot # 1439 (Sale Order: 438 of 448)      

Between June of 1858 and December of 1853, the Ordnance Department purchased some 6,988 Colt Dragoon pattern revolvers. They were issued to both the US Cavalry and Dragoon regiments, as well as to some of the various states under the Militia Act of 1808. With the outbreak of the Civil War, the Ordnance Department officially moved to the use of belt holsters for revolvers, and for the first time began to acquire holsters for Dragoon revolvers on contract. The Emerson Gaylord company had entered into the military accouterments business in 1841 in partnership with N.P. Ames of the famous Ames Manufacturing Company. Over the next decade the firm would become the premier Ordnance Department accouterment contractor. The dragoon holster was produced using the standard four-piece construction process used on most Civil War US contract holsters. The four major pieces were the holster body, the closure flap, the belt loop and the toe plug. A fifth small piece was the closure tab. The body was folded and sewn along a single long seam on the outer edge, with the closure flap sewn to the rear of the body. The toe plug was sewn into the bottom of the holster body. The belt loop was sewn onto the rear of the body and reinforced with three copper rivets. The closure tab was riveted to the closure flap and reinforced with stitching. In his book, Meadows suggests that at most only a few thousand of the Gaylord Dragoon holsters were produced. Although the actual production figures are not known, based upon extant examples, the production was rather limited. Meadows additionally postulates that some of these Dragoon sized holsters may have been used for other, non-standard secondary martial revolvers, like the M1858 Starr Double Action revolver, which would not fit in the standard Colt/Remington “army sized” holster. CONDITION:This holster is dark brown rather than the more common black finish. There is some light crazing to the leather on the body. It is probably one of the finest all original Dragoon size Gaylord's to survive. Complete with toe plug, body, flap and closure with all of its stitching intact and bold cartouche. One of the best.

Relic Shell Casing From Custer's Remington Sporting Rifle.

Lot # 1441 (Sale Order: 440 of 448)      

This relic shell casing is believed to be one that Lt. Col Custer carried on either his person or his horse into the Battle of the Little Bighorn. It is well known through contemporary witness accounts and historical research that Custer carried a Remington .50-70 caliber "rolling block" sporting rifle into battle. No direct evidence for George Custer’s personal firearms (a Remington sporting rifle and Royal Irish Constabulary pistols) was located on the Custer battlefield. However, a single .50-caliber bullet fired from a Remington sporting rifle was found at the Reno-Benteen defense site. The bullet was found embedded in the hospital area, and its orientation suggests it was fired from an Indian position east of the defense site. The bullet is not definitive evidence of Custer’s Remington in Indian hands, but it shows that at least one .50-caliber Remington sporting rifle was used in the battle. (Archaeological Perspectives on the Battle of the Little Bighorn, p. 116). Original letter included with this lot states that the relic shell was recovered by Mr. Keith McDougal on October 21, 1976 using a metal detector on range land leased to the Scott Cattle Company. The casing was recovered approximately 200 yards North and slightly East of the Calhoun position on Battle Ridge. Research done by the shell's previous owner indicates that the Remington company validated the fact they produced brass shells of this caliber during the period in question. Most all of the Indian used and US Cavalry shell casings recovered during the next few decades were almost entirely made of copper. The casing was previously in the collection of the late respected Custer author Mr. John Carroll of Bryan, Texas, and was one of his prized possessions. Carroll was co-author of the monumental work, "Roll Call on the Little Bighorn" and author of more than 50 other books and pamphlets on Custer. Carroll was a pre-eminent purveyor of Custer related items in the 1970's and 1980's and was proud to own this piece. The accompanying correspondence is a full five years before any detailed metal detecting work was done in an official manner, and many years before the well known forensic testing of cartridges from the battlefield. Circumstantial and fact based evidence indicates that the story is genuine as well as the relic casing. PROVENANCE: Includes signed and notarized affidavit from Mr. Keith McDougal Jr. dated Sept. 20, 1979, and original letter from McDougal to noted Custer authority John Carroll dated August 8, 1979. From the Dr. Frank Wagner cavalry museum collection. Paperwork: References to Shell Casing in "Custer Sporting Rifles" Condition: (Relic). Dimensions:
This relic shell casing is believed to be one that Lt. Col Custer carried on either his person or his horse into the Battle of the Little Bighorn. It is well known throug...moreh contemporary witness accounts and historical research that Custer carried a Remington .50-70 caliber "rolling block" sporting rifle into battle. No direct evidence for George Custer’s personal firearms (a Remington sporting rifle and Royal Irish Constabulary pistols) was located on the Custer battlefield. However, a single .50-caliber bullet fired from a Remington sporting rifle was found at the Reno-Benteen defense site. The bullet was found embedded in the hospital area, and its orientation suggests it was fired from an Indian position east of the defense site. The bullet is not definitive evidence of Custer’s Remington in Indian hands, but it shows that at least one .50-caliber Remington sporting rifle was used in the battle. (Archaeological Perspectives on the Battle of the Little Bighorn, p. 116). Original letter included with this lot states that the relic shell was recovered by Mr. Keith McDougal on October 21, 1976 using a metal detector on range land leased to the Scott Cattle Company. The casing was recovered approximately 200 yards North and slightly East of the Calhoun position on Battle Ridge. Research done by the shell's previous owner indicates that the Remington company validated the fact they produced brass shells of this caliber during the period in question. Most all of the Indian used and US Cavalry shell casings recovered during the next few decades were almost entirely made of copper. The casing was previously in the collection of the late respected Custer author Mr. John Carroll of Bryan, Texas, and was one of his prized possessions. Carroll was co-author of the monumental work, "Roll Call on the Little Bighorn" and author of more than 50 other books and pamphlets on Custer. Carroll was a pre-eminent purveyor of Custer related items in the 1970's and 1980's and was proud to own this piece.

Historic French Bronze Swivel Cannon Found at Lake George, Ex. William Guthman Collection.

Lot # 1445 (Sale Order: 444 of 448)      

This important French and Indian War Cannon comes with a copy of a signed letter from William Guthman attesting to its authenticity and provenance. The letter is on his letterhead and dated January 1994 and he states that he obtained it from the original owner 20 years prior and it was in his collection until it was sold, sometime in 1994. This cannon, along with another identical, was excavated from the mud along the shore of Lake George during the 1930's by collector and known dealer Tony Fidd, Senior. Cannons such as this one were mounted at the bow of sloops and rowboats used for battle on the lake. The boats these guns were used on were often deliberately sunk on the lakes, submerged to protect them from destruction during assaults across ice-covered lakes. The cannons were frequently buried for safe-keeping. A copy of an excerpt from the diary of Abel Spicer, dated 1758 Lake George, New York states that "Monday, October 23rd - This day they finished carrying off the bateaux all that was not to be sunk, and buried the sloop's guns and rigging." On the next day he also states that they buried the oars and a great deal of their equipment. This is the most likely explanation of how this cannon was stored and came to be found in the mud on the shores of Lake George. The cannon itself has a 24" bronze tube, including the cascabel. The bore measures about 1" in diameter and the cannon weighs about 50 pounds. There is a 1-1/4" trunnion on each side and the cannon measures 5-1/2 inches across the trunnions. Its original iron yoke is still present. The turned barrel shows a 2" by 2-1/2" relief cypher of a dolphin on top between the trunnions. In front of the touchole, an "E" below another proof can be seen for St. Etienne royal French foundry. The cannon dates circa 1740-1750. Complete with a nice contemporary base and four period grape shot cannon balls in relic condition. CONDITION: Tube retains a very dark, even patina and is untouched. Shows a few marks from use during the period. Yoke retains a heavy brown patina and shows some corrosion. This is a very historically significant cannon which most certainly saw action during the French and Indian War. Paperwork: History & Photos Condition: Dimensions:

THIRD REICH STEEL SCALE MODEL OF A 88MM FLAK 37 ANTI-AIRCRAFT GUN

Lot # 1446 (Sale Order: 445 of 448)      

Exceptional functioning steel scale model of a German WWII 88mm Flak 37 anti-aircraft gun, marked as manufactured by "Ernst Merling" in "Bamberg, Germany" with a serial number of "011". That serial number appears on several components. The right side of the breech is marked "Mod. 1937, Cal. 88, GEW.".t appears to be a desk piece gift, and it might fire a 5mm blank. This marvelous piece of machining has a 12" smooth bore stepped barrel with recoiling breech block mounted on rails, with dummy recoil cylinders in the lower front. It has functioning hand wheel elevation that will elevate 90 degrees from horizontal to vertical and a traversing hand wheel that will rotate the entire cannon on its base 360 degrees.

Right side of cartridge holder has a small Luger-type striker which engages the sear which is attached to the trigger/handle. The nose of this device is removable for single shot loading of blank cartridges. The 88mm Flak gun was so versatile that it was used from 1937-1945, also as an anti-tank gun, and was feared by WWII Allied armor crews. CONDITION: Retains most of its original metal finish on the gun itself, with the base being a freckled silver/brown patina. Mechanically sound. Overall very good to excellent. Condition: Dimensions:
