The oak and leather case has a canvas outer cover which still bears the remnants of two White Star Line baggage stickers.The White Star Line began in 1849 with the 879 ton Iowa, and ended with the last liner Britannia, which left New York Nov. 25, 1960. Their most famous ship was the Titanic, which sank April 15, 1912. This is a fine shotgun with a bit of very interesting history. FREE SHIPPING FOR FATHERS DAY.
