Do a search on Julia's past auctions and you will see many comparable examples. Beautiful gun.

CE20,

My heart can't take much more this morning! Blowing another 6" of the white, heavy stuff and now this. I'm looking for another nitro tab and it's not even noon. I'll send you the GPS coordinates for the teller's window at my credit union. I'm sure we can agree on a fair value relatively quickly. :D All kidding aside, she looks like a REAL SCREAMER! What a beautiful Fox and obviously one near the end of the parade route heading out of Philly. Wonderfully composed photos too. Thanks for sharing.
On the whole....I'd rather be in Philadelphia....

Wonderful photos of a beautiful Ansley H. Fox double, but we can't see if it has the original butt plate and we can't see if the barrels have been cut. Those are huge factors in determiining market value.

I can assure you the barrels and butt plate are untouched and original. :)

Thanks for the compliments! She is so special it's a shame she doesn't get to show herself to true fans on a regular basis.

Her DOB is 12-15-1928

I don't believe the she had ever been shot prior to a pair of sharptails I took in Montana 7 or 8 years ago.

Beautiful gun and great piece of wood. It appears it has been fitted with a Sterlingworth style grip cap, if it was my gun I would change it to the logo grip cap which would be correct in my opinion.

So it listed for $107 and change? I'll give you $150.00 cash right now.

Ha...what a beauty. Like someone else said, a definite "Holy Grail."

Recently entered the Fox world (like I needed another obsession) and am looking forward to finding a companion or two for my lonely looking Sterlingworth.
