Spanish Campfire Catalog

I've decided to sell this on Ebay. I'll list it Sunday for a 7 day auction and will amend this post to reflect the auction number then. From what I currently understand no one has come across one of these before. I'm not as well versed in Fox Guns memorabilia as you folks so it may well be that this is less of a novelty than I think. I don't know if the red markings were how the catalog went out or if this is a prototype with corrections marked up. It's designated as Catalog # 24 S


The auction number: 181793863135

Wow, pretty cool catalog. I never knew they printed them in different languages. Any other languages besides Spanish?

I just have this one Spanish Edition - don't know about any other languages it may have come in. It is neat - pretty good condition and there were 4 pages of notes in Spanish (not on Fox stationary) that were found with the catalog itself that will be included.

$1676.00. I fell asleep at the wheel and missed it. It is a great catalog. Maybe someone here will admit to scoring it. I am a bit disappointed that I missed it.

A.H. Fox Gun Co. shipped a lot of guns to Martin Kohn, the big dealer in Havana, Cuba. So, perhaps with the recent thaw in relations some more Spanish language catalogues will appear!! I figured it was exactly like the EXPORT EDITION "Campfire" catalogue No. 24E I already have, and my three years of Junior Highschool Spanish can barely get me a beer in Tijuana!!

In that A.H. Fox Gun Co. also shipped a lot of guns to L.H. Hagen & Co., Christiania (Kristiania or Oslo), Norway, this guy with a lot of Scandinavian blood is waiting for an A.H. Fox Gun Co. catalogue in Norse!!
