[bg=http://forum.treasurenet.com/images/coinsc.jpg]Hi All, I am looking for brass shotgun heads from the old paper shotgun shells (or complete shells). I am also looking for all brass shotgun shells. I have several vintage images that I am willing to trade. These are original CDV's, Cabinet Cards. Stereoviews, Albumen Prints, RPPC's, etc. Below are some of what I have to trade. If you have any headstamps/shotshells that you would like to trade, PM me and lets see what we can work out.

Please note, I am not looking for perfect shells or heads. I know there are a lot of relic hunters out there that find headstamps and throw them in their "junk" buckets. Those are what I am looking for. Full shells are okay of course, but are not necessary. Duplicates are also fine, as I am finding a lot of variations within each "brand and model" of shell. I don't care if they are dirty or corroded, I can clean up most for my purposes. I am working on a database logging as many different headstamps and variations as I can find. When I get the first batch of photos for my database finished, I will be making in a PDF document for anyone who wants it. It will be free.

THIS IS WHAT I HAVE!!!

I will consider trades for other vintage images but I am really looking for headstamps for my database. Thanks for looking and I hope to hear from you soon.

For those of you who don't know me personally, I have a 950+ rating on an online auction site with a 100% positive rating. The majority of my sales there have been images.

Re: For Trade - Vintage Photographs for Shotgun Brass

Here are a few more pics from my collection that I can trade for brass. Please take a look.

Thanks,
Doug

artisticcdv.jpg

Very unique CDV. The photographer painted over the background on the negative giving it a very unique artistic look.

grizzled.jpg

Nice CDV of a grizzled looking man.

lot003.jpg

Great postmortem from the 1930's-1940's.

lot004-1.jpg

Take a look at that tree and vehicle! RPPC

slide001.jpg

Lantern slide of six on a paddle boat with American flag on the back. Looks MUCH better in person. My scanner didn't like this one.

familyportrait001.jpg

familyportrait002.jpg

Family portrait of a mixed race family. 1890's-1910's

cyan002-1.jpg

Great cyanotype of an American West scene. See the mountians in the background, the railroad tracks on the foreground and the building in the center. Might be mining related as it came with other mining images.
