Re: Fox #29 in Vegas
The gun had the banner engraving pattern and was nicely done. The lever was well left of center and the gun had plenty of "experience". The price was marked at 8,000.

Marshfellow,
Nice meeting with you and the other Fox members. You are returning with a beautiful gun. The "banner" guns are hard to find. Hopefully we can visit again in the future. John

Re: Fox #29 in Vegas
Was a very good show and was great to meet other Fox and double gun fans.
Seen some great guns.
Did anyone get a picture of that very busty lady dispensing cocktails and drinks in the Antique section? Now that was a PAIR, and I don't mean barrels.
Marsh was one of her better customers. I was a frequent visitor also. Many preferred to just walk by and check the goods. Either way, something to see.

Jolly,
"Very busty" is an understatement. I should have gotten a pic with her, yourself and our other good friend.....you and he will never be the same.
Heheheheheh. Yeah, alot of fun indeed.
Now, regarding Foxes, I have had a chance to spend time with #29......It's nice to compare with #35.....many similar traits. I would bet that Ansley had his hands on them both.

Eightbore.....Negative on ownership by "Tom"......No.35 has "New Owner"(Who would like to become The Former Owner") No 121, 3"x 32" 12g. c.1906-1907? is settled into a very nice Home on the East Coast. It did a Number' on a few Crows a while back. I handloaded some 3" Black 1.1/4oz #5 shot! I have tried to buy the Beauty' but to no avail. Whilst it was here I stuck a nice piece of old Tyessier French Walnut on the Front and the Back.( It had been made to look like the Cover-Girl on a Marvel Komics spacei ssue!)....Foxed Chisels.
