ID this Cartouche ?

Honestly, the stock is so damaged that I don't think it is worth anything anyway.

Look at CC #8, lower left on Harrison's clear overlay template. Assuming the scale is way off, which I have heard it is on this template, the CC #8 Harisson calls "Provisional acceptance mark found on post-WWII replacement stocks produced by Jamestown Lounge" is pretty near a dead ringer. The trunions may be a little more pronounced on the Harrison template but, unless my old eyes are particularly bad tonight, everything else looks pretty close.

That still doesn't account for the highwood, which makes no sense as a post-war replacement. I still don't know what it is.

I don't have a Std. Pro. but Harrison says the SP cannon breech is not rebated. True or false?

[ChipS]

My eyes apparently can't see that tiny Harrison CC very well tonight. There is no round 'bomb' above the cannons on the Harrison Jamestown Lounge cartouche so I'm back to Walt Disney.

Here's a picture from the auction showing the odd CC.
Below is a picture of the bounced CC from a friends 6,2 mil Inland..
As you'll see........... That's no INLAND STAMP !!

Charlie, I had to get out my 5.2 Inland. You're right and I stand corrected.
I don't think the seller is trying to fool us, I just think he is miss informed.
So who's CC is that?.....Frank

[frankderrico]

My 5.2 Inland CC, just like your friends Charlie....Frank

I checked both WB (pg 315) and Riecsh and it doesn't seem to match anything. I hate to say it, but could the "double bounce" be a newer, recent stamp placed over an old one?

[painter777]

Agreed with Wulf, the stock is of little value.
Also agreed that I don't think the seller is trying to mis-lead anyone.
I've been blowing this picture up and playing with color shades.
I believe this larger stamp was added at some time. My guess...... a poor Inland reproduction stamp. Was thinking at first... could it be a early QHMC Bigwheel? It isn't, but it's possible that the area I've circled could be the remnant of a real Stan Pro CC.
Just guessing on my part. But the size and location would be close.

Charlie, I think you are onto something there.
