The Museum proudly presents a master piece of York Co, PA of the Gunsmithing Sell family. These guns are probably by Frederick, though unsigned in name, the style of carving is easily recognized and specific to this family of makers. Often considered by many as amongst the finest of York Co school carvings, the Sell family guns have extraordinary "artistic merit."

Please compare these guns; they are so similar as to almost be identical!!!!!

Thanks for your effort. My browser opens correctly so I don't know how to fix this glich. An alternate path is to go to the Library , the PA guns, then "York" and the "Sell"
