have any pictures of a Holland & Holland CLIMAX safety Hammerless in their archives?

I really need some photos for a project I am working on.

Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated.

H&H,

Long shot, but there was one for sale at Bonhams' Sale 10331 on July 23rd, 2003, lot 99 (The Cheval Room, Knightsbridge) List . Maybe they have an old catalogue with photos you could get.

If you can latch onto a copy of Holland & Holland by Donald Dallas there is quite a bit there plus ilustations and patent drawings. Lagopus.....

My H&H Climax was made by Scott, had two identical "Cogswell and Harrison" guns, one in 12 bore and a little gem in 28 bore, sold to the late Don Shrum. They all had cocking rods in the action which pulled the hammers back when the barrels dropped for loading.

No, I sold it to Cabela's in East Grand Forks, MN three years ago. I always felt that these were one of the prettiest shotguns ever made, especially the one in 28 ga.

H and H, not sure if this Scott will help. If it does, and you need more pics, just ask.
