Henry's of Boulton
« on: December 19, 2012, 09:13:45 AM »
I need to find some photos of the rifles made by the Henry's while at Boulton.    Can anybody direct me to a resource?

Thanks,

The best collection of photos is in Henry of Boulton: A Pennsylvania Gunmaking Family and its Firearms (Jacobsburg Historical Society, 1988). You can typically order this directly from the Jacobsburg Historical Society for (I think) $15.00. But they are between Executive Directors right now so it is a bit more difficult to do so than usual.

If you do want to obtain a copy, feel free to email me directly (spg4@lehigh.edu) and I can find out the actual cost and how you can obtain one.

James D. Gordon GREAT GUNMAKERS for the EARLY WEST, Volume II -Eastern U.S. has good photos of about 19 rifles.

Might the gentleman from the Breast of Old South Mountain share the Jacobsburg sourcing information with all of us??
