Folks

A local auction mart is listing the following double rifle and I am interested in any information some of you may have in regards the maker and potential value of the rifle. The listing is as follows:

"Samuel Ebrall, Shrewbury, James under-lever back action hammer type double rifle in .450, 3 1/4 BPE cal. encased in orig. brass mounted leather, luggage style case. This gun is engraved overall in fine English scroll, w/sharp checkered walnut p/grip featuring fiddle-back finish, the blackened bbls. have a 3-leaf express sight, matted rib, w/elevated ramp to secure front sight. Bores appear exc.+"

I won't be able to look at it till the viewing the day before the auction a few weeks away, so do not know how tight the action is, etc. Any help (or even a point in the right direction of where to look) would be much appreciated as I am considering bidding on this rifle.

Thanks in advance.
