I have a friend that has an old poster from the United State Cartridge Company showing all the cartridges that we assume the company made and some reloading data on it. Does any one know how long this company was in business and how much this poster is worth and if it was ever reprinted We noticed that the 22Lr is not listed thanks

  Do not know exact dates- have seen a copy of their 1891 catalog. They were bought by Remington in 1926. Name has revived a couple of times under different owners. Have a few of their cartridges- the RFs usually has a US in an impressed circle. The CFs had primers marked with US. Kinda neat. Your catalog MAY have been older than the 22 LR. Which is generally accepted as being born in 1887.
