Thx Kaimiloa, an old collector in the guntrade in the UK told me Harkom used to be nicknamed the
"Purdeys" of Scotland. Joseph and his son ended up working for Dickson. I have been told this
happened as a big fire destroyed their premises (all serial number records were lost which
is a pain as I could more accurately determine the age of the gun). Interesting stuff anyway. Oddly
a chap in London called me a couple of years ago telling me that a gallery had a picture entitled
"Mr Grant walking up Grouse" and I would have liked to see it but couldn't get the artists name
and see the picture, (it would have been nice to re-unite the two but given the price of paintings
that was never going to happen !! ). I never did track it down. best, Mike
