Sig Posted November 25, 2015 Report Share Posted November 25, 2015 Posting for enjoyment of the fellow AOW board members. David was looking for some other information for his research and I pulled out my Von Lengerke & Antoine catalogs. Inside number 75 had some AOW's I feel for sure would be of interest here.As a side note, I did post pictures of both a full and smaller size Ithaca catalog in another post. I have not found an exact reference to match catalog number and year but the NID Ithaca A&B depicted began life in 1925. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wwl Posted November 25, 2015 Report Share Posted November 25, 2015 Thanks for the 2 images of VL&A. I have a Auto Burglar NID mfg in 1925 that I purchased from the retired sheriff 30 years ago and will add these 2 page images to my display. I have traced the gun from Ithaca to VL&A in Chicago. The gun was carried in the Depts squad for 40 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sig Posted November 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2015 Here are reposts of the pictures of my catalogs.The larger one is really a work of art very impressive.smaller one is similar art but I suspect the quality is not the same, have to study that more closely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wwl Posted November 25, 2015 Report Share Posted November 25, 2015 Sig-----My computer will not let me print the 2 images you posted [1925 VL&A cover and the Auto Burglar page]. If you find a free moment and PM me I could give you my address if you could reproduce those 2 pages for me. I would have them lamenated for my display. I will surely reimburse you for your time and expense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joseph12297 Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 I have Handy Gun ads from 1928 and 1929 Stoeger, still $12.00 retail those years. if any of you AOW folks have one and want the ad, PM me and I can send you the page with the Handy Gun ad. Very similar to Sigs ad shown here. Does NOT have the A&B though. Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
