"For Collectors Only" Series by North Cape Publications:

The first new book on these earliest Winchesters in twenty-five years, and the first to provide a complete, part-by-part description including dimensions, finishes, markings and variations. The venerable, and very collectable "Yellow Boy," the "Gun the Won the West" and the scarce Model 1876 are completely analyzed and described in text and charts. All serial
number lists have been revised and are included, courtesy of U.S. Repeating Arms Company. Your Cost: $19.95
 
  The second in this study of Winchester lever action repeaters, the first in twenty five years, covers the extremely popular John M. Browning-designed Models of 1886 and 1892. These are currently the hottest collectible Winchesters because of their affordability. As in Vol. 1,  Pirkle describes each model on a part-by-part basis by serial number range complete with all
finishes, markings and changes to each and every part. He also provides detailed appendices to assist the collector.  Your Cost: $19.95
  This is the third volume in Arthur Pirkle's study of the Winchester Lever Action  Repeating Rifles. The Models of 1894 and 1895 are examined and described on a part-by-part by serial number basis. All dimensions, markings, finishes and any changes to a part are listed complete with its serial number range of use. Parts are described so thoroughly that one will be able to differentiate between "Winchester-manufactured," after-market or reproduction parts. This volume provides a complete and detailed description of every one of these changes. Experienced collectors know that the value of the firearms in their collection depends in large part on their authenticity. Know that your Winchester lever action repeating rifle is correct; if it isn't, let Arthur Pirkle show you how to replace incorrect, or worse, reproduction parts. Your Cost: $19.95 Describes the elusive and little-known "Trench Shotgun" and all other combat shotguns used by U.S. military forces.
