Do you REALLY shoot a .577 Nitro Express (maybe a double)? Ouch. Show your African trophies? Oh... and thanx for the tip. Hope he chimes in. (and Peter Falk, RIP).

It's early 1950's vintage, working from memory, something like 1952/1954. If you need it narrowed down further, I can do a little digging. It's late here.
