Sig Posted August 14, 2004 Report Share Posted August 14, 2004 Anyone ever hear about a Books Trunk company Thompson case? If so are these 30's era? thanks michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steave Posted August 18, 2004 Report Share Posted August 18, 2004 Yes, they are '30's era trunks; Books Trunk Co. was in Kansas City, MO. I picked up a real nice, 98%, 21/28 Navy several years ago that was originally purchased by the Audrain Co, MO Sheriff's Dep't. in 1933 and remained there until 1980, it was in a Books case and is original to the gun. Thanksfully the Colt is in MUCH better shape than the case! Steave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron A Posted August 18, 2004 Report Share Posted August 18, 2004 Was anyone able to purchase this case. I sent the person who made the post at his request photo of a Brooks case which I owned. He then phoned me and stated he wanted $2,000. - I agreed if he would send photos of his case, something he never did - then the case was offered on several sites for $2,000 or best offer. I know of one person who made a offer of $1500. Have sent several E mails - no response! Strange.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
