Here is a recent find of mine that I thought some of you may enjoy. It is a Red Ryder BB Gun that would have been made sometime between 1946-1954 in Plymouth MI. The Daisy BB's would have been from at least 1959 with the company having moved from Plymouth, MI, to Rogers, AR, per ttomtuckers comments on a prior Red Ryder listed on Collectors Weekly. Thank you so much for the info ttom.
It is pretty cool how the kid that had this personalized it to show that he meant business. A skull and crossbones! Also what looks like a propeller. I guess he wanted you to know he could get you on the ground and in the air! You didn't want to mess with him that is for sure!! : )
Thank you for looking and have a blessed day my friends! : )
Interesting Art Work there, the carvings on these old Red Ryders are Kinda like Folk Art right? haha
