The guns looked to be in nice time capsule condition. They would definitely need to be cleaned since they looked to have been in storage for years but they did not seem to have any rust issues or excessive wear, just dust build up. I bet that case was for the Charles Daly since it was Marcus III's, it looked like the latest gun there, serial about 25000. I have no idea why it was broken up. I think the Purdey, made in the late 1920's (serial in the 23,000 range) and the H&H were Marcus Daly Jr's. He was a big Hunter and died in 1930, of a heart attack, while duck hunting.
