Gun Engraving In Japan in the 1950's
I have just recently acquired a Winchester Model 12 that belonged to my Father. He passed away a couple of months ago. My Dad was in the USAF and stationed in Japan in the mid 50's, I think it was 1955. He had this Model 12 engraved while stationed there. I would be interested in finding out some of the history on this. I have several photos that I can email anyone who might be interested in helping. I would like to know more about the gun engravers of Japan during this time period and how they rate with other engravers. Although I would never think of selling this gun, I would like to know what it is worth. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I was there on four occasions during that period and can attest to the magnificent engraving done on firearms there in the Tokyo area. 0
