ARMS & ARMOUR of Archduke Eugen, 1927 Auction Catalog
This book is a reprint of the 1927 auction catalog that sold the Arms and Armour collection of the Archduke Eugen from the armory at Fortress Hohenwerfen near Salzburg, Austria. The entire content from the armory (over 2000 individual items) was sold in 1155 auction lots on March 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5, 1927 in New York. The catalog has over 102 photographs showing 290 of the items in the sale including 10 suits of armor. Original copies of the 1927 Archduke Eugen Arms and Armour auction catalog are almost impossible to find and they are greatly desired by arms and armor collectors for its historical significance and valued reference of early weapons and armour from the 15th to 19 century. Original title of the 1927 auction catalog, sale number 2140 by The Anderson Galleries, New York, was “The Great Historical collection of Arms & Armour, the entire contents of the Armoury, Fortress Hohenwerfen near Salzburg, Austria, Inherited & Augmented by H. I. & R. H. Archduke Eugen, F. M.”.

Dr. Richard Jordan Gatling's GATLING GUN PATENT DRAWINGS
This book contains copies of all Dr. Gatling’s original Gatling Gun patent and patent drawings from the United States Patent Office. Also included are the patent drawings of the Broadwell Drum Feed, Bruce feed and Accles feed that was used on Colt Gatling Guns. Shortly after the outbreak of the American Civil War, Dr. Richard J. Gatling began work on his most famous invention. A prototype gun was made late in 1861 and was demonstrated in Indianapolis early in 1862. On November 4, 1862, Dr. Gatling received the first of his 10 patents for the famous gun that etched his name into history forever. The Gatling Gun was sometimes called by Dr. Gatling, Colt Firearms Company and the United States Patent Office as a battery gun, rotating battery gun, rotating cannon and machine gun. When the “modern” machine gun was made, it was referred to as an automated machine gun. These patent drawings provide a step back in time to view a technically advanced 19th century weapon that changed history.

Search and Rescue Team One was a combined forces unit of 12 enlisted men and one officer that rescued approximately 160 downed pilots and crews in Vietnam War area from Dec 1964 through Jan 1966. Commanded by a Naval Officer, the 12 volunteer enlisted men in the unit consisted of 3 Naval, 5 Army, 3 Air Force and 2 Marines. Special unconventional intensive training took place from the beginning of October 1964 to end of November 1964 at Imperial Beach, Paris Island, Quantico, and Fort Bragg. Stationed in Da Nang, Vietnam, the men of this unit made rescues of down pilots and crews in Vietnam and in other places including Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, India, North Vietnam and China. Their unit patch shows a numeral one over a two that represents sending one rescuer out and two returning (downed pilot and/or crew). During the 13 month deployment these single man rescue operations saved approximately 160 down pilots and crew in places that other rescue operation could not be used because of combat conditions or the locations (North Vietnam, Cambodia, China, etc) where it was not “politically acceptable”. In February 1966 all 13 men safely returned from Vietnam.
