Set of 5 / some time before as well another set of 5
Its correct Josef Just retired/ceased operation due to no business successor.
I understand the lots came from a very big collection
from Northern Europe and not from J.Just himself.
I attended the auction and if I got it right the frenzy bidding
has been between two Springer employees
- both of Russian origin - taking bids by phone.
And the Russian JSE-secretary-beauty raising full of
joy the fist having the successful bidder on her phone.
So the old rule still applies : "Art and guns follow money".
In this case someone between Kiev and Wladiwostok considered
this lot to be a must-have for him.
Another lot, a Fabbri Over-Under, made 34 KE.
My guess to US.
Many other Italian gun-beauties there.
Last Olympic games 9 of the 12 shooting competitions have
been won with Parazzis.
"Bella Italia Rules."
