The Book of Colt Memorabilia Unknown - 2014

This updated version of John Ogles book informs collectors about the vast array of non-gun merchandise produced by Sam Colt's companies and other companies using the Colt name. This issue includes a multitude of color photos to help readers identify a wide range of objects from knives, buckles, and badges to office supplies, decals, glassware and coasters . As a retired Colt Firearms Co. employee I have managed to obtain many memorabilia items pictured in this book. I still have some of the Unmounted ColtStones, and the Colt tie shown in the center of the attached photo. In support of this book I have contributed photos of many items from my own personal Colt memorabilia collection. Some of those items are: ColtStones pg 67 #3-310, A rare Colt Jewelry box, pg 71 #3-330, 331, Colt Armory Band pin, pg 158 #9-3, Colt Pistol Team shirt, pg 270 #23-8, 9. I still posess the ColtStones, and the Colt team shirt but it no longer fits me after almost 50 years! Because of my contribution to this book John Ogle honored me with this book and an acknowledgement, pg 5. He signed and inscribed this book to me on 6-27-2015 If you buy this autographed copy I will include the other two John Ogle books I have for free (ref SKU 0017, 0019)
