This lovely leather and oak case measures 13 3/4''x10 1/2''x5 1/2'' with brass hardware and collection of two-piece Remington shotshell boxes. The leather case remains in excellent condition with burgundy baize lining the interior lid. The top of the base is adorned with oak runners secured by brass brackets and screws and the exterior stitching remains tight and it has reinforced brass corners. There are four removable dividers and the case is marked ''Abercrombie & Fitch / New York / Made in England'' above the lock (no key provided). The leather covering shows light handling marks and a couple of spots of minor verdigris staining near the brass hardware. The interior houses a collection of eight vintage 12 gauge, two-piece Remington Nitro Club boxes: (1) Grouse Load, (1) Trap Load, (1) Goose Load, (1) Buckshot Load, (1) Rabbit Load, (1) Quail Load, (1) Heavy Duck Load, and (1) Squirrel Load. These are a mixture of full, partial, and empty boxes sealed in plastic wrap to protect the labels, all show varying amounts of light ingrained dirt staining and light scuffing most with 95-97% of the labeling remaining. Also included is an original Remington Nitro Express brochure that remains in excellent condition. (10B11576-4) (1000/1500)
