But do the 1950's guns really have the nostalgia and mystic of those pre war guns? Who were the artisans employed during the post war period? Ben, I would take a good solid turn of the century bpe over this gun any day.

They aren't that bad, I have 2 of them, a White Hunter in 500
and a 465 Boxlock.

Yes, they are sometimes valued under pre war guns but it all comes down to the particular gun.

People seem to pass them up based on rumour and other peoples say so without actually looking themselves

500,
You may be right,I would not buy a Chapuis or Heym either. The auction is not aimed at me as a buyer.
