Daisy 1955 Gun Book #3 Handbook and color Catalog

147 pages, about 6 1/2" x 5 1/2", glossy soft-cover in full color. New re-print with additional 16 page Color Catalog, restored and digitally enhanced from a nice original. Printed on high quality 20# 97 bright acid free paper. Fully Illustrated.

If you are a baby boomer, this is what you were reading in 1955! Absolutely… Ramar of the Jungle, Annie Oakley, Davey Crockett. You bet! We remembered it just as soon as we picked it up and you will too. However, if you never read it and the Boy Scouts or you uncle never taught you about "Shotgun Pants" or how to cook an egg on a hot stone, you’ll learn it here. This is one of our favorite publications with a lot of serious competition for top spots with the over 1000 publications we reprint!

Daisy says: "Young and old alike will enjoy reading this fascinating compilation of historical guns, western lore, comic strips and other subjects (including Daisy’s latest Air Rifle Catalog.)

Background drawings illustration the historic rifles, pistols and revolvers were made especially for this Gunbook by famous cowboy-artist Fred Harman in his Colorado Ranch Studio. The selection and written description of each gun was done by Mr. C. Meade Patterson, Gun Collector’s section of the National Rifle Association, Washington , D.C. Daisy thanks both gentlemen for their invaluable help.."

The 1955 Color Advertising Catalog is also available by itself.
