Had to share my newest beauty recovered in Westinghouse

Going back a couple years of pictures, the red bone Case used on the 2019 barlow vault release is quite good, the jigged ones especially. Wish I had bought more, they were pretty inexpensive at the time.

That’s a beauty. And a Lambfoot to boot.

I'm told sawcut bone is the quintessential cover choice for a good barlow.
