Mr. Mann:
Your comments are most welcome as with Hans having left us and possibly the craftsmen you mention, you are our source of parol evidence and I hope that you continue to interject vital clues. Had it not been for yourself and Hans, we would know little of the Lindner craftsmen.
Kind Regards,
Raimey
I am humbled by your comments.
Hans, my dear friend and consummate student of German guns, was my inspiration. This is evidenced by my encouraging his publishing his outstanding books, both available and some to be so. My tact was toward the men that produced the guns that we treasure today.
As a devotee of great works of art, I have included this man, HA Lindner as one of the masters of his discipline.
There is art and there is art.
Visual and otherwise.
His work is art of a usuable sort.
Great useful art.
I stand in awe.
Best regards,
John
