$2 Million dollar Gun
Thought you guys would enjoy this!
A local gun collector discovered he owns the luger George Eastman committed suicide with? He paid less then $500 bucks back in 1972. Very interesting article. I can scan and post the whole article if your interested. They say George Eastman owned 2 lugers (a matching set) and both are unaccounted for until this one turned up in Rochester. Although they don't give a clear description of the luger other than "it's an early 1900s model" it matches the one in the original police photos. It is marked under the barrel with a C/B, C/G, C/U, 172,28 and ser. 133 Better check your collections The owner no longer wants to keep the luger because of it's tragic history. Hmmmm, wonder if the $2 million price tag helped with that decision? Bob For some reason. I'm having trouble posting a PIC? |
