Seems that Purdey finished the gun (1942) two years after the customer passed away.

Quote:


Krishna Raja Wadiyar IV, Bangalore Palace, also known as Nalvadi Krishna Raja Wadiyar, was the ruling Maharaja of the princely state of Mysore from 1902 till his death in 1940. He is regarded as one of the most celebrated rulers among the Indian States when India was still under British rule. At the time of his death, he was also one of the world's wealthiest men, with a personal fortune estimated in 1940 to be worth $400,000,000 which would be equivalent to $1,000,000,000 today. Whether this gun was ever delivered to the Maharajah's estate is unknown with his death in 1940 and WWII.










During WWI and WWII, that was common.
