Project Description

!!!!!ON LAY-A-WAY!!!!!  This is a miniature sporting crossbow made by master miniaturist George Jones.  4 3/8″ long with a 2 15/16″ steel bow with a blue finish.  The bow stock is made of wood, maybe rosewood or ebony.   The bow string is multi strand, & wrapped.  There is a brass trough lining the top of the bow where the bolt would rest when loaded.  Complete with the steel cocking tool, & base.  There is more going on here than I know how to describe, so look the photos over closely & see the skill, workmanship, & attention to details.  Marked on the stand base “20 GJ 05, MADE FOR KENNITH WHICHARD, JR. BY GEORGE W. JONES”   Stock # MC-71.  !!!!!ON LAY-A-WAY!!!!!
