High Polish HSc E/135

<< < (2/2)

Warbird:
Interesting estimate there.  From my production chart and research, you can see that the number presented for this variation is 20,631 ... so there is quite a difference of opinion.  I would like to know how he arrived at only 4,000 pieces in that time frame with no mention of anything "special" about them.

jcorl:
At the gun show there was a dealer that referenced a book with the number 4,000 being a "special" production run of ultra high polished E/135s.  I was not familiar with any of that discussion about this "special" 4,000 run, so that is the reason for my inquiry.  I thought I had learned something new from an old salt, but it turns out I may have been listening to someone not very skilled in the HSc field.  I had another "old salt" dealer tell me my 1935 Kaovaka from Eloelo, Panay was not correct.  It just so happened a man from the island of Panay was standing there(small world) and set him straight in a 10 min. lesson of detail by detail.  I learn something new every day.  I did learn there was a private gun collection of HScs that would be going on the market soon.  The collection has a LGS in it. I made an offer, sight unseen.  Hope I don't regret that leap of faith.
