I had told a few other collectors about this piece I was having done with an old board from the Red Barn siding. I was asked to post it when completed. I will be hanging this in my office. A true example of Ruger history.



A letter of authenticity that was done by the RCA for the project.




This is a nail removed from the board. It has a square shank.



This piece of the siding actually has the original paint (white) from when it was built in 1885 by the Northrop brothers and then remodeled and painted red in 1945 about the time Bill Ruger started his tool buisness in a small section of the barn.
