Chuck,

I did find the same information that you pointed out to us earlier on the Board, and the C.F. cartridge being listed in the Rimfire book, but no picture of the 1874 board, or any other cartridge boards!

Anthony

Correct Chuck,

I have read that over, and enjoy it even more when I review it!

Just haven’t found pics of any cartridge boards in either volume.

Anthony

I’ve posted them in the past, but there are a couple of articles in the collector magazine that show those boards.

The dates are listed in the articles.

The well known cartridge boards are dated as follows:

1874

1879

1884 (2 Variations Known)

1886

1888

1890

1894 (Only 2 Boards Known)

1897

1902 (Lithograph Board Only)

There is also lesser known salesman sample cases that have shot shells and cartridges in them.

A Blue Salesman Case with Shot Shells & Primers Dates 1884-1894 Timeframe.

A Red Salesman Case with Shot Shells & Cartridges Dates 1901-1906 Timeframe.

A Yellow Labeled Black Paper wrapped Box with Dummy Shot Shells early 1900s Timeframe.

A Wood Grain Pattern Box with Factory Layout on the Lid with Cartridges Dates 1910-1915 Timeframe.

That about covers it. There some later 1930s & 1950s salesman cases that aren’t as valuable.

Sincerely,

Maverick

Thank You Gentlemen, for refreshing this information, and to you Maverick, for condensing, explaing,  and organizing it!
