10/16/20 - The Broomhandle Pistol, 1896-1936. Authored by Wayne Erickson and Charles
E. Pate. In this rare book, the authors present numerous previously unrecorded variants of the Broomhandle- with photographs in many cases. Beginning with early history, the more standard, high production pistols form the basis of the book. However, the rarer variants are extensively examined and are compared and contrasted to high production guns; which they either led up to or were derived from. The numerous and detailed photographs are extremely useful in identifying the various Broomhandles. In addition, sections are devoted to the rarities, foreign copies, accessories, pistol components and breakdown procedures. A bit of fraying on the corners of the hardcover, 298 pages.
