ATTIC-FOUND WINCHESTER CARTRIDGE BOARD.

ATTIC-FOUND WINCHESTER CARTRIDGE BOARD. This cartridge board started out as an 1897 Winchester “Double W” cartridge board. At some point in time all the cartridges were removed, and the advertising was painted out with the exception of the bear hunter vignette in the center, the moose head & the duck. Then the cartridges were very nicely arranged in an altogether different fashion on the board, along with a few additions not normally found on this board. The orig Winchester banner at top can still just barely be seen peeking through the old green paint. Cartridge board still framed in its orig oak frame. SIZE: Approx. 57-1/2” wide x 40” high. CONDITION: Top section of frame in poor condition & has been attacked by worms at some time. Image, as indicated earlier, painted over and now with some small paper losses, primarily in the lower left-hand corner. Back still retains the Winchester Repeating Arms Company’s “PLEASE HANG IN A PROMINENT PLACE” notice. Very decorative piece for someone who doesn’t want to spend the $15,000-$25,000 for a complete orig model. 4-35035 JDJ (1,500-2,500)

Auction: Firearms - Fall 2008

Please Note: All prices include the hammer price plus the buyer’s premium, which is paid by the buyer as part of the purchase price. The prices noted here after the auction are considered unofficial and do not become official until after the 46th day.
