Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Included. 1st Edition. 266 pages. Hardcover with a dust jacket. Old powder cans and kegs are colorful, historical and highly collectible, catering to a variety of interests. The Bacyk collection is probably the most extensive assemblage of powder cans, kegs and related memorabilia in existence. The quantity, rarity and scope make this collection extraordinary. There has been considerable activity over the years in this area, by various collectors, and some other notable collections have been amassed. Many firearms, sporting art and tin collectors also have powder can and keg collections of varying sizes. To date, there have been minimal references for these collectors to determine rarity or value of cans and kegs. In this book, we have focused on the major American manufacturers: du Pont, Laflin & Rand, American Powder, King and Hazard, plus their related companies. Included in the book is some historical data from other sources which will give the reader some of the more interesting background of these companies as well as a rarity and price guide (as of the publication date of the book). We found that we could not cover all the collection in one volume, and hope to complete another on the smaller American companies. West Coast mills and foreign manufacturers at a later date. An outstanding reference. Language: eng Language: eng.…

In this volume the author covers the smaller companies, the agents and the retailers that were such an important part of the gunpowder trade. Oriental and Hercules are, or were, major firms but most of this book is devoted to the names that are all but unknown, except to a few advanced collectors. Again the majority of the examples shown are from the Bacyk collection but another major sorce has been found in the Hagley Museum and Library.
