Alvin Linden was capable of doing the finest work possible but now and then his inletting was less than perfect. After I wrote my first article on Linden I was taken to task by some guy named Jerry Fisher. He felt that I was a little hard on him and I should remember the harsh conditions that he had to work under. When Mr. Fisher returned home, being the nice guy that he is, he sent me a Linden buttstock made for a Farquharson pictured in Kennedy’s book page 3 for my collection. Now there is no way I’ll ever have a Farq that will fit the stock, should I make a lamp out of it?
