Finally! Its been 3 years since i got an original box for a Marbles tang sight for the 73. Well the search for the matching sight finally came to an end yesterday.
I was surprised at how hard it was to find one.
I know most of you guys are lyman guys but since no one else i know collects stuff like this, i figured i could show it off here.
That’s a great find. Any paper items in good condition are hard to find. I don’t recall ever seeing this box for sale? Any idea of the date of the box? Tom Rowe shows a Marbles list that identifies it for the 32, 38 and 44 Cal. 1873’s. I don’t believe that Stroebel shows any info on this sight?
Chuck,
I won the box on ebay a while ago. If i remember correctly i didn’t pay more than 50 bucks for it. I have no idea what the date of the box would be. I’ve only see the usual W1 and W9 boxes. So when i saw this box i took a chance with the price being so low. Has the original red wax paper and instruction fold out too.
