The Hunter Arms Co., Fulton, N. Y., has issued the following announcement:
The Lewis and Clark Exposition has recently honored our product by awarding a gold medal on both the Smith gun and the Hunter One-Trigger. This medal is the highest award given and we feel particularly proud of the achievement, as the committee conferring the honor was composed of gun experts and the decision was given in our favor in the face of the keenest possible competition. Our entire product during the year just past has attained successes of far-reaching importance.
At this Christmastide we would extend to you our message of “Peace and Good Will.” May 1906 find you brimming with vigorous health and strength, and assuring you of our kindest best wishes, we remain,
Yours very truly, The Hunter Arms Co., John Hunter, Secretary.

Drew, that's a good start. Hopefully, someone can post Christmas related ads from other companies.

From the December 1901 issue of Recreation --



The same Winchester ad Drew showed from 1903 was on the top half of the back cover of the magazine.

Thanks, Doc. Always enjoy those ads.

One question ......... are you sure that last Stevens ad is as early as 1905? It has a later look to it, and the lamp looks like an electric one. Maybe they made some oil lamps that looked that way, tho'.

May God bless America and those who defend her.
