This was purchased by my great Uncle around 1932. It’s a 20 gauge made in 1916. I’ve been trying to figure out how to order a sales receipt. I’m old and just gave the gun to my nephew. With the same instructions my father gave me when me the family heritage arsenal. He loved this gun. “Never sale any of these guns.” M nephew and his son hunt and I’m happy. Serial number 200663.
How do I order a copy of the sales receipt here?
Also gave my father’s flight jacket from WW II. He flew a B-24 over the Pacific. The small dots are the Islands he bombed.

Re: 1916 Fox 20 Gauge
I don't know that you can order a sales receipt. Do you know where and on which exact date the gun was purchased? Even then, I can't imagine that a receipt would still be available. You could order a letter on the gun, which would tell you Fox's price of the gun when new, and MAYBE the dealer the gun was shipped to. Nice gun; 20 's with 30" barrels are desirable these days. Cool jacket too!

An early A-Grade straight grip ejector gun, a highly desirable configuration. Way cool as is the flight jacket. Many memories in both I would imagine!
If you join up as a paying member of the AHFCA you can request a Record Card copy. I just checked and the 200663 Card is available and although a little hard to read (dark) it does show the order details and has a special note on it. frank
