A good friend is a prosthetist, but most of his work is in legs.

This might get you to the gatling gun and the mountain howitzer.

For Your Perusal:

 

Your day will come too James!!!!!

 

I did not know there was a Colt ‘Baby Paterson’. This weapon is surely named for Paterson New Jersey where I assume it was made for that is where the huge Colt factory was. I also assume there is a Colt simply named the Paterson?
Side note: Paterson was the site of the beginnings of the ‘industrial revolution’ in the US and essentially begun by Alexander Hamilton’s interest in that probability.
The beautiful Great Falls were utilized to produce electricity and they still do though the visible areas have quite a bit of ice on them now.
I’ve been there a few times and love to see them.
Paterson is also where Lou Costello, of the comedy team of Abbott and Costello, was born.
There is a statue of him in a park downtown. There was a Abott and Costello museum on the campus of Montclair State University just down the road from NY Yankee catcher Yogi Berra’s museum also on the campus. The A&C museum has closed and I believe the collection will now be housed at the Paterson museum which, I think, it always should have been.
The museum is worth seeing as it also houses one of the early submarines’ designed by Holland.

 

King.....I went back and copied the whole listing, which wasn't long for the Baby Paterson:

"This Colt #1 Baby Paterson cased revolver, serial number 458, with a German silver front sight and engraved in script along the top of the barrel “Patent Arms Mg Co. Paterson N.J.-Colt’s Pt.,” estimated at $25,000/35,000, sold for $40,250."

 

Thank you!

 

The Paterson was the forerunner of the colt line of famous revolvers.

Please don't show me the Thompson......a failed gun that became an American Icon...! .....................Droooool !!!!

 

Uhhhhh, earth to the the elderly ladies, come in dear, are you there? It's on page 157 in the digital edition....... put down that wine jug this instant!!

Yeah, you can't copy n paste web addy because of paid subscription issues! Above link goes nowhere! But, you can thumbnail & save image, course, you can't read it or enlarge, lol

 

The James D. Julia company website also includes the full catalog and all the results of that auction, and other past auctions. No need to post from a secondary publication unless you want to read the article that appeared. Just a hint! Might save a lot of trouble.

 

Yeah but then, I wouldn't get a chance to riff on the post! which i am having a good time doing!
