Maybe some info. on the original owner. I have not been able to confirm my suspicions, so I will not say until I know. Possibly he was a sportsman, deaf mute, and race car driver ca. 1915 or so. If so, an interesting fellow for sure. I did find an Adolph flyer tucked into one of his later catalogs that pictures the gun. Also have the Harrison Fisher illustrations that were patterns, but not exactly copied by the Engraver. We know Kornbrath did much engraving for Adolph, but I am not sure on this gun. I believe Kornbrath was credited with the Adolph gun built for Teddy Roosevelt.
