The Fox Collectors forum was founded in 2006 to stimulate interest in the history and production of Fox shotguns. We believe you will enjoy our forum and learn more about the rich history of Fox shotguns.
A while ago I picked up this little Fox folder, which was apparently made for dealers to hand out as it has a space for their name and address.
It uses some of the same graphics as their magazine ads of the era --
The folder pictures an A-Grade on the inside and has seven endorsement letters on Fox guns dated from June into September 1912. It desribes and prices the A- to FE-Grade guns and mentions their "surprise" gun the Sterlingworth--a good gun--cheap--not a "cheap" gun, and states "Ask for special descriptive folder". Anyone have or know of one of these descriptive Sterlingworth folders of this era?
........definitely a nice piece. I like the fact that it mentions the 16 & 20 ga guns too. I was wondering if you were going to be able to shed light on the "Sterlingworth" piece?

IN GOD WE TRUST. SPE Skeet & Uplands and AH Fox vent rib guns a specialty
Dave - Thanks for the offer. I am trying imgur.com and it seems to be fine although a link needs to be clicked on so it's not the most efficient method. This might have the Sterlingworth pamphlet if I did it right http://imgur.com/a/44D01
Craig - I don't know what a "hang tag" is to be honest. I think I've looked over and separated out all the Fox Gun stuff and I haven't seen anything called a hang tag. The majority is old paperwork; some old ledgers, letters and such.
