One Hundred Years of Winchester Cartridge Boxes, 1856-1956  Ray T. Giles
Caliber Description   $
9 m/m RF Long Shot   Fiocchi, boxes of 50. Have both black (earlier) or white (more recent) boxes but not all shot sizes. (Fiocchi has about doubled the price on these in the past year or so.) $40
9 m/m Long
Shot Lesmok		 Winchester. This is the seldom encountered Lesmok loading. Though found in this "Smokeless" red-labeled box, these very scarce GREEN Lesmok shells, to the author's knowledge, have been found in no other labeling: there are NO Lesmok labeled boxes. (see Giles & Shuey, pg 241). This rare box has 14 original cartridges (which, for years, I've seen priced in the $10-15 range). For the advanced collector of the several interesting varieties of this great little cartridge! $150
9 m/m Long
Shot		 Winchester. Early "Smkls" bx, ca 1930 (pre-Olin, pre-Western). Contains 39 original red, paper-tubed "mini" shot shells for the Win Mod 36. $140
9 m/m Long
Shot		 Winchester. Red, paper-tubed "mini" shot shells for the Win Mod 36. Shells are clean & native to the box. Bright & solid, NICE! $250
 
16 Ga Western. Xpert, so-called "Quail" box in the scarce "Skeet Load". New from original case.   $275

18 Ga U.M.C.Co. This an example of the rare 1-7/8" 18 gauge shot shell by UMC. Very few examples of this rare cartridge are known to exist. There are 2 varieties: the earliest shows "No. 18" on the headstamp but the headstamp bunter broke and was replaced by a "No. 20" bunter creating a 2nd (even rarer) variety as shown in the photo here. The top wad, however, was the same on all such shells and clearly shows "18 Infallible 3/4 C 7 1/2 U.M.C." The pink paper tubes were also consistent with both varieties. Nice clean example & an unusual opportunity! [From my personal collection].
