The famous image entitled Success was painted by A.B. Frost and is first seen on the Winchester 1895 calendar and used again on the actual cartridge board circa 1897-1898 as well as on this print. This is the stone litho version of the true cartridge board. These were given to dealers across the country to advertise their product but due to the large size and fragile nature of these items, seldom did they survive in any condition having been stored for decades in hot attics and moldy basements. It was printed in full vibrant color and features the same image of 2 hunters and a dead bear, and a mallard and moose. CONDITION: Very good, with light tears and rubs throughout and colors starting to fade, especially at Winchester logo. Housed in what appears to be a period frame. A stunning display piece for your gun room at a fraction of the cost of the actual cartridge board, and far easier to maintain. TON
