"Most British gunmakers between 1760 and 1860 possessed a tradew card with the reuslt that they provide a natural chronology of the trade, as well as being in themselves attractive examples of the engraver's art. Around 1790 they stopped being just business cards and were increasingly pasted inside the lid of a gun case. The authors, having collected and photographed trade cards for over 40 years, moved inevitably towards a study of the development of the gun case and its equipment. By providing a photographic index of trade cards, together with an historical account of the case and its contents, they have not only produced a work of deep interest to all gun collectors but also provided an essential work of reference for the authentication and dating of firearms during the period." - from dust-jacket blurb.
