(A) PAIR OF F.H. CLARK MEMPHIS TENNESSEE AGENT MARKED HENRY DERINGERS.

(A) PAIR OF F.H. CLARK MEMPHIS TENNESSEE AGENT MARKED HENRY DERINGERS. Although this is not a matching pair, they are very close and display quite nicely together. Both guns are properly marked "DERINGER / PHILADEL" on lock and breech. Both are marked on the flat “MAN'd FOR / F.H. CLARK & CO, MEMPHIS TENN / AGENTS”. F.H. Clark advertised selling jewelry, cutlery and guns for many years in antebellum and post-war Memphis, Tennessee. Clark sold derringer style pistols with his mark by many makers; authorized Henry Deringers in fine condition are quite scarce and this is a fine pair. Both guns are German silver mounted with silver bands at breech. Engraving styles are slightly different on each gun, Gun (A) has script "JW" initials on thumb plate and the other thumb plate border engraved. PROVENANCE: Ex. Douglas M. Sirkin Collection, John Montague Collection. CONDITION: Very Good. Gun (A) is a bit lighter in color with slightly smoother metal retaining about 60% of its original varnish. Gun (B), the darker of the two guns has strong traces of original brown finish on barrel and retains about 30% of its original varnish though it has darkened. It has some chipping around lock, pitting at the tip and a repair of wood between lock and tang. Both guns have defined bores and fine mechanics.Name Value Barrel Length (BOTH) 2 - 1/2" Caliber/Bore (BOTH) .45 Rifled FFL Status Antique Manufacturer (BOTH) Henry Deringer Model (BOTH) Pocket Pistol Paperwork Tags Serial Number (BOTH) NSN, Name, Value, Barrel Length, (BOTH) 2 - 1/2", Caliber/Bore, (BOTH) .45 Rifled, FFL Status, Antique, Manufacturer, (BOTH) Henry Deringer, Model, (BOTH) Pocket Pistol, Paperwork, Tags, Serial Number, (BOTH) NSN
