Fall 2021 • WINCHESTERCOLLECTOR.ORG | 37 Outfit also does not have the canvas case. As early as 1880,Winchester made a full-length leather case for their lever action rifles. It was marked "WINCHESTER REPEATINGARMS CO NEW-YORK" with a leather strap around the middle of the case (shown on the next page). These high-end leather cases were sold exclusively at their store in New York City at 312 Broadway. We have been fortunate enough to have owned two of these full-length leather rifle cases. The two we owned were marked for the Model 73 and the Model 94 Rifles. The model number and barrel length were marked on the buckle strap that fastened the case. These cases are extremely rare and should be considered as Above: One-piece steel .22 caliber cleaning rods Below right: A flexible cleaner and original packaging Top left: Four-piece Henry rifle cleaning rods Top: Later four-piece lever action rifle cleaning rods Above: Shotgun cleaning rod set with canvas case
