Does anyone know any information on a 12Ga. shotshell with a ruger eagle on it that works like a kaleidoscope? We have some unique pieces in our ruger collection and this is one of them

Welcome to Ruger Forum! Ah-ha! You're from "that part of the country" where the goodies are found.

We do have a few Members here on Ruger Forum whom are very well versed on the Memorabilia!

My knowledge is limited..... my avatar is about my best item.

I have a kaleidascope shotgun shell but it is not Ruger marked, I think it is Remington or Winchester. It came in a box-lot of stuff at some auction and was in the foam-lined box. I don't think they were sanctioned advertising materials from the companies but the use of the trademarks were licensed as on other things. So I doubt that the Ruger one was initiated by Ruger. So it would be collectible in the same sense that some of the belt buckles that were not spawned by Ruger are collectible. Or the big shotshell mugs, etc.

Scoot,

Don't be afraid to make your images a bit larger. Just please keep them "narrow" enough that one doesn't have to scroll left and right to see the whole thing......

You have some great pieces of memorabilia pictured.
This the first I've seen of the Kaleidoscope.

The directors chairs were distributed through Davidson's or Elliot Bros. Wholesalers?

I would like to see a better picture of the Wilson Buckle which has the Auto Pistol. What series is it and is it numbered?

What is below the Wilson Buckle?

The clock, WOW!

Thanks and welcome also

As a poor boy just trying to stay in the race with Shawn or Rick,, my collection is far from all that. Then I see the pics of these things,, and I just hang my head,, knowing I'll never be able to get such nice pieces. This small dog, will have to stay on the porch,, and grin at these big dogs!
VERY nice stuff!

After those small dogs come the pups. I guess I'm a pup as I've only been on this memorabilia kick for a couple years now. I'm trying.

I enjoy looking at all sorts of different ruger collectibles and I hope you all don't mine me showing you ours to enjoy, it is all pretty neat, The Wilson belt buckle was made for Bill Ruger Sr from Jerry Wilson, it is a one of a kind. It says on the back Wilsons World Prototype. It has BILL RUGER on the front of buckle with a gold ruger pistol in the center.This was his personel one.I will show a better picture of it later. THANKS Scoots dad
