My daughter is a graphic artist. I have wanted for years to make an appropriate label for the gun cases that my Baker's are in. My interest is in the Baker hammerless guns and my recent Baker SBT. She says it would be no problem for her to make the art work for these labels. I am looking for good copies of any of the Baker art work, so that she could compose off of them the art work that would be appropriate for these guns. Anyone have any logo, stationary, advertising or other art work that we could use to lay it out. If you have it, I would sure appreciate you sending it to me. All the art work I have is about 10th generation copies that are getting very hard to see any details. Other Baker gun art work could be designed as well, if the appropriate art work was available. You can find my email address in my profile.

Here is to my mind the best Baker Gun & Forging Co. catalogue cover. Unfortunately in a hundred years in an ammo box it ran afoul of a mouse!!  Here is a cut of their top-of-the-line gun from an issue of The Baker Gun Quarterly.

Thanks for locating these! There are some real possibilities here to make the label from. I would like to find a real clear and precise drawing of the butt plate with is Baker Gun and Forging logo. Anyone have that as well?
