I have the distinct honour to announce a comprehensive How-To book on Engraving by John Schippers to be published by the NMLRA. It will be out this Christmas so keep an eye out in the Muzzle Blasts and online.
One book will be a spiral bound book for ease of use while working and a Limited edition hardbound for you collectors. Do not know the price as of yet but will be worth every penny. It will be over 400+ pages, fully illustrated with many dozens of pictures with many fine examples of Mr. Schippers work.
I had the distinct priviledge of reading it before the final draft went to the publisher and OOOO BABY this will be one sweet book. :bow:
I am also doing this because those who know Mr. Schippers also know he does not toot his own horn, letting his work speak for him so I figured to toot it a bit for him!!
For those who do NOT know him he engraved the Scales Brothers pistols on the Muzzle Blasts cover a few months ago. He also comes to Friendship where he is usually found at the Gun repair building and has done so for decades.
So keep an eye out for the release date cause I am putting my order in for my Christmas present!!! :thumbsup:
Cheers, DonK
