World's Ugliest Luger Grips

I believe that I can give some history on Franzite. I have a 1928 catalog titled SPORT MANUAL published by P.VON FRANTZIUS 608 Diversey Pkwy Chicago Ill. The front has an ink stamp SPORTS, Inc successors to. The catalog is extensive and advertises many firearms of the day including Lugers of many models and carbines with stock for $65. I have read somewhere that after selling this business, Von Vrantzius went into grip making business as Franzite. I have several variations of Luger Franzite girps. Most are undersize. Maybe they srunk over the years. I buy then because they are Luger stuff and go back a long way. They were made in black, white, stag and brown marble that I know of. The catalog also advertises Luger parts and extra receivers with various barrel lengths. Drum magazines are $15.00. Loading tools are .15 and cleaning rods with oiler .50. Genuine Ivory grips are $15.00. Artillery stocks are $2.50 and holster with strap $6.50.
