Default Artistry In Arms by Roy Jinks

I forgot I had these, I have two, found them going thru an old box. I got them either at a Shot Show or possibly an NRA show when I worked for a firearms distributor years ago. They are big books and contain a history of Smith and Wesson with about 80 pages of photo's of both production and factory engraved guns.

1 is even autographed by Roy himself. The title is "Artistry in Arms The Guns of Smith and Wesson" at the bottom of the cover is "Smith and Wesson International Museum Tour 1991-1995"

I dont know how many are out there but they are excellent reading.

I had'nt thought about selling them, I am not a collector so I would not even know what to ask.

The book was produced in conjunction with a traveling show of exotic rare S&W's, most from pre-war or antique era's. The "International Museum Tour", 1991-1995. There were posters also with top break models with Tiffany silver grips, and gold inlaid single actions.

Last I heard the books were bringing in the vicinity of $35.00.
