'MICHIGAN ANTIQUE ARMS' SEPT. 2012




We were invited by the Michigan Antique Arms  to do our display at their Sept. show.  The show is not a display show as such so they placed us right in front of the incoming public.  I thoroughly enjoyed speaking with the many informed and inquisitive visitors.  The Club people were very accomodating and put on a quality show.  I tocl them that we would be back next year with a different display, and we will..

CODY, WY 7-2012

We left on July 3 arriving on July 4.  Cody was very busy, but no so busy we could not find a seat in the Irma's bar, and we were able to make reservations at the Proud Cut Saloon for dinner.
The Winchester Arms Collectors Show was better than ever.  We set records for the amount of tables and for the public attendance.  Visiting with friends is always the highlight of the trip.  I had a WACA Board meeting Sunday after the show so we did not leave until Monday morning arriving home late Tuesday afternoon.


We took home the 'Best of Show' traveling trophy with our new and improved Winchester Hotchkiss Display highlited by the B.B. Hothckiss 'One of Two Known'  prototype.  We will reutrn the trophy next year in Cody.
