Was going through some old photo albums, and found some picks of my trip to the US in 91. we were at the Sahara gun show and the Woods collection was on display. Man was that collection the best of the best.Have often wondered where it all ended up, and has any of it resurfaced.

We were very fortunate to have our photo taken behind the prize piece, Cased 76.

That is correct. Butterfield’s in San Francisco, 10/22/91.  I bought my first big money Winchester from that collection – a 28″ barrel Model 1876 in 40-60 cal. and in pristine original condition.
