    Well our show has ended and I am very pleased to say that it went well. We had the fortune of making many new friends and added a few new members to this fine Assocation.

    I wanted to specifically thank Bruce Bonney and Jim Stubbendieck for their enormous efforts to make this display a success.

    This is the first time the L.C. Smith Collectors Association has had a display in this part of the midwest and it was very well recieved. All weekend long we had people at our booth asking questions about the guns and talking about how they were in some way connected to an L.C. Smith.

    Today some of the people that saw us on Saturday and spoke about some guns they had brought them in for us to view. Guns ranging from a high condition F Hammer gun in a old wooden case, an nice Ideal, 3E, Crown Single Barrel Trap and for the brand "X" lovers "Parker " a very nice GH and a wonderful AHE were brought in for us to view!

    We were very pleased with how it turned out. As it was, we had nearly every Grade represented from the Pre 13 side of things from A2 down, in various gauges, which included a wonderful Grade 2 8g! On the Post 13 side guns ranged from a Crown down to high condition Hammer gun from 1927.

    I am sure Jim will be posting some pictures on the "Events" page, until then, here are some other pictures of the display. Please excuse the number of pictures, but there was alot to look at thanks to the fine members who helped put this together. I wanted to again especially thank Bruce Bonney and Jim Stubbendieck for all their work and dedication. Hope you enjoy the pictures.
