Ross,
Depending on the particular year your model 250 was manufactured, it retailed for either $250 or $275. I say either as I own catalogs on either side of the date estimate I gave you for that gun and I'm not sure of the exact year SD&G changed their retail price for this model. BTW, it is not a coincidence that many Prussian Dalys retailed for the same price as their model number. This alingment held for many years until the march of inflation disrupted this system.
Bill,
The article is still a work in progress and not yet ready for Cote. I had a Daly article in the last German Gun Collector pub on the evolution of the hammerless Prussian Daly SxS, but this article focussing on Lindner guns has been a tough one. Everytime I start feeling a little smug that maybe I have mostly figured out the Lindner Daly production sequence, a new Lindner will emerge and throw a wrench into the works.
So as of now the article sits having already been re-written a couple of times. What will likely go forward will be the 80% solution as finding the Rosetta Stone does not seem imminent. My goal is to finish the article and add some nice photos this winter. Without the nice photos, it has no hopes of seeing the light of day in the DGJ. And to be honest, between very long work hours, travel, moving into a new house, and trying to catch the occassional hour of sleep, I just haven't had the time to focus on it like it deserves. Again, I'm hoping things calm down a little in the winter.
