Google is full of references to that company. I won't try to describe what they made and sold, but it isn't guns or sporting goods. I searched and searched and I can't find anything on Mr. Crosby related to that company. Digging deeper may unearth some reference. He did not seem to be a competitive shotgun shooter of the time. A.C. Schwartz, who may have been a principal of the company, lived in Philly and was a decorated polo player as well as a competitive trapshooter as I recall from my limited research.
