I’m a hundred or so off but I’m dying of curiosity!

Yep. Thought it would be nice if the gun and case could be reunited.

My Imperial (14397) was in its original case until 2-3 years before I bought it. It’s out there somewhere.

Through my research I learned that at least three members of the Ames family owned Hussey guns. I have a list of the names of people in the US who ordered Husseys through 1912 and there are several recognizable names. This is a photo of the FL Ames building in Boston:

$1500 for the case? I haven’t been following these, but, that seems a bit over the top for a case that isn’t all that practical.

Best,
Ted

Champlin sold one belonging to J.S. Ames a few years ago Ames Hussey. The gun had a lot of original condition.
