<p>[QUOTE="ExoMan, post: 2705418, member: 72588"]Hey, Bruce ..... Here are the pics of recent acquisitions that you wanted to see. The one exception is the Asa Waters c/s in combination with the Nathaniel Whitmore c/s. I've had this one for many years and just took the pics. Perhaps, some other forum members will find these of interest. Lots of history here. All are listed and attributed in Brunk but the Moll and Wise c/s's.</p><p><br /></p><p>I strongly believe that the <b>N.MOLL.</b> c/s is that of Nathan Moll, a PA gunsmith. There's a percussion rifle out there with this stamp, but I have yet to see a pic to ascertain a match. The <b>G.K. WISE</b> c/s is likely that of Philly silversmith, George K. Wise, active between 1842-63 and possibly beyond. He partnered with various silversmiths of note, like Robert Dunlevy. I have yet to find a piece of silver with his mark. Both of these pieces have yet to be listed. Finding "discovery" pieces like these always fuels my interest in the hobby.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
