"Blackish" Early DWM Finish...?

Pete Ebbink · 11-16-2003, 01:40 PM

Hello All,

Here are the two gun examples from the C. Kenyon book that show the very blackish and very polished finish on the piece I saw at Reno...

I think the 1900 cased Commercial may have sold at a Christie's auction a few year back...

It is possible this type of finish is not authentic, early DWM...? If so, how could Mr. Kenyon have missed this...?

Regards,

Pete... <img border="0" alt="[typing]" title="" src="graemlins/yltype.gif" />
