Welcome.
I do too, and hopefully overtime we can develop more of this and more extensive photo libraries.
Checkout the Nickudu files in the Ezine forum. Lots of old books and magazine articles in PDF format there too. Thousands and thousands of pages.

The Nickudu files are a real treasure. I will spend days poring thru all of them.

Welcome Hillbillybear. As a historian and someone in NC I'd have to bet you like flintlocks?

Welcome hillbillybear - here's a tidbit to drool over - just a bit, even though of lower 'cast', it's still a Manton. My brother uses it for the clay pigeon shoots at Rendezvous. Makes 82% and 68% at 25 yards with 1 ounce loads.
