The Glahn's were an entire family of gun engravers. These are the names I know of: George, Gus, Jacob, Karl, Theodore, and Wilbur A. I am not familiar with a Joseph. L.C.Smith's chief engraver was Albert Krause but he had many people who worked for him over the years.

Roger, I'm mistaken. You are correct, it is Jacob Glahn whom I wish to reference. I know that some of the Glahn's did a lot of pistol engraving.

Yes.

Yes we do.

You supply it of course.

I like chocolate for the cake and... oh let's go with mint for the ice cream - makes a good combo.





Congratulations!
The amazing thing is how high a percentage of your posts are actually useful, unlike some of us more chatty types.

Just by luck i noticed a post in Barbara`s everything to get started thread that read........


I did the 5 day course with Wayne Parrott a few years ago - and it was one of the best courses I've attended on any subject. I'm not convinced my current efforts do his tuition justice though...

Amazingly a hardly known name pos up twice in a couple of days

Hey, Scott,

The information you are receiving will give both a list of influential engravers and an interesting list of the best engravers around. Why not establish both?

As my son once said, "Go for it Dad."
