A lot of information is out there in bits and pieces, but if you could pull it all together with some added original research, I think you'd have a hit!!

Kevin McCormack did aricles on the Runge family in both The Double Gun Journal, and the Remington Society of America Journal. There is some pretty good information on engravers in the new Houchins L.C. Smith book, and Walter Snyder covers several that worked for Ithaca in his books. I know I saw an article on the Glahns somewhere, but I can't lay my hands on it right now. I know that in an old magazine article on touring the Fox factory Capt Askins mentions that Billy Gough head of the engraving department at Fox was the day he was there engraving a pistol. We know for sure that Gough engraved a lot of Winchesters during his time at Fox. Outsourcing may not be as new as we think!!
