Lot 4055
These are sure outside my realm of experience. I see a long letter from George Madis is included.
Opinions on whether this is real?
Michael – do you know if it has sold before?
I have seen 73’s with acid etch panels most of them looked ugly and none that were thought to be Winchesters work. The problem with acid etch is you can’t do fine work and have the detail like engraving.

I see Michael brought this same acid etched M1892 rifle up nearly four years ago:
