M.A. Henry
"Hopalong" from Canada (Gold!)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is an extremely rare Cap Gun! As far as
I know it is the only Hopalong Cassidy Cap Gun that doesn't have "Cassidy" on
it. It just says, "Hopalong." Almost like they were trying to get around the
licensing issue. If you will compare this GOLD VERSION with the regular nickel
plated version below, you will see that the one below has the longer
barrel. Be Sure To Click On The
Thumbnails! Photos thanks to Scott McCollum. |

Go ahead and compare this one to the one
above. It definitely has a longer barrel. And there's those silly square-holed
screws! Definitely from Canada. Be

A very
rare "pop-up" cap box variety of the Wild Bill Cap Gun. See more below. Be
sure to click on the thumbnails above to see photos that are a little
larger. Thank You Tom Coates! |

And
here's a very rare version (and box) of that same Cap Gun from Canada. Steve
says that he got the gun at an estate auction and that it is manufactured by
M.A. Henry Ltd., Dundas, Ontario.

Again we
see a version of the Wild Bill Hickok Cap Gun, but this version has the
simulated revolving cylinder and the antique bronze finish. You will notice
that this one has the cameo grips. They put different grips on them, it would
seem, for no apparent reason. Thank You Tom Coates! |

Here is
the same basic gun as the first one but the grips are copper
plated. Thank You Damon Converse! |

I just
couldn't help myself but put these in here. For one thing, the photography is
excellent and another thing is that I am somewhat upset that he found these in
an antique store, just sitting there waiting for him. Why can't I ever find
stuff like this? It would have been even better if he had put all of this stuff
on a beige background. You should always watch your background, for digital
cameras seem to incorporate part of it into the overall hue of the photograph.

Here's another
Canadian set showing (up close) the type of screws that the Canadian company
used. I hadn't seen the red ellipse before either.

Here's a
remarkable set complete with holster and box. The box and holsters are ALSO
Leslie-Henry. This set is worth some serious money. I always loved Andy Devine.
What a voice.

M.A. Henry Wild
Bill Hickok & Jingles Pop-Up Model
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is an M.A. Henry Wild Bill
Hickok and Jingles set from Canada.
Besides being a pop-up Cap Gun, this set
also is TWO SINGLE HOLSTERS! Quite unusual and rare as the Dickens. |

Here's the top
area over the holster pocket showing the nice engraving.
And I couldn't resist just one more photo (because
of the quality) of this Cap Gun's right side. Rich says that the grips are
metal plated with copper.

Here's the M.A. Henry (of Dundas) Wild Bill Hickok and Jingles
kid's Cowboy Outfit. This must really be rare.

Scott McCollum of

And
just to demonstrate how popular this series was, here's ANOTHER box for the
same basic Cap Gun.
And here's the
gun from this box. Since this style of logo seems peculiar to the HALCO series,
then the gun and the above box were probably also HALCO, bue Leslie-Henry were
still the makers. I think.
Here's a
rare ad of the HALCO style probably by Leslie-Henry and distributed by Glenn
Bever.

Here's a nice set with the
same basic gun but with a fine holster set.

Here is a mint
long-barreled Wild Bill Hickok Leslie-Henry example. Very rare and this one is
MINT.

Leslie-Henry
Wild Bill Hickok Pop-Up Model

|
|
|
This Leslie-Henry Wild Bill
Hickok is the same version as the amber grip model above.
These photos
are included because they show a lot of close-up detail and the white grips are
different. |

This Leslie-Henry Matt Dillon
