Point of spelling here, my good man- Will not match your Purdey and case- etc- a Purdy with case would be a high grade paint brush- the Purdy brush Co. makes the best paint brushes, they are the "Steinways" of the painter's trade- house painters- Don't know if old Andy Wyeth used them for his NE sea-scapes though. Now a Purdey is indeed, either a Steinway or Bosendorfer of the double gun realm-- truly a treasure indeed- and deserving of a fine case as well-
