The engraving on the background double gun?
#10293 - 27/02/04 06:27 PM

Hi,
The engraving on the background double gun (3 rhino' on the right side); would someone know who this engraver is?
Name?
Would he or she have a web site?
Telephone number and/or email address?
Any more pictures; if yes where?
Double maker's name?
Thank you very much!
CardiacDoc

Dear Dave,
When this forum loads, there is a boxlock "background"
in light grey which quickly loads, then gets over-written
by the page. I believe this "back-ground" loads before
each and every page. I am looking for an engraver
to do some work for me....
Thanks,
CardiacDoc

Doc

The rifle is a Westley Richards. The engraver would be someone from Westley Richards or contracted by them.

I will have a look for the original photo so you can see it more clearly.

...my guess would be rashid el hadi (sudanese) in wr's birmingham factory...

...you can contact the state-side agency (speak with holly, a friendly, helpful sort) or wr-uk directly (talk to simon clode, the uk md)...

...or you can meet with simon in person at the next sci-reno event...

...good luck...

There is also a very talented and well respected engraver on this forum. He goes by the screen name Scrollcutter and seeing some of his work both in pictures and in person I think you would be very pleased. Maybe you could email him and have a look at his work its the best I have seen in some while and well outside the mainstream.
