Here is a lovely couple that has taken up residence here in tha last year. Mr. Smith was sent out for a restoration as he was a little under the weather. Mrs Smith is factory original. They are both Crown Grades. Mr Smith still needs wood as a previous owner thought he would be better looking with aftermarket wood. He will be on his way to The Stock Doctor later this week to correct the indescretion. Single barrel is 34" double is 30" vent rib, single Hunter trigger.

Restoration work on single was done by Kim Alyworth and brother Clark. I wish I had before pictures so you could appreciate the quality of the work. Kim rechased engraving reshaped and refinished wood. Barrel was redone and leather cover pad added by Clark.

Waaay outta my reach, but sweet Elsies- The framed picture behind one of the gun photos- two grouse- Robert Abbett perhaps?
I first saw his work in the 1977 Fall issue of the old Gray's Sporting Journal-- with a poem by a Don Titus- entitled "The Grouse Hunter"--


"The field is the touchstone of the man"..
