    I have a Model 21 engraved by R.W. Washburn. I have been
    Told he was an engraver at Winchester in the 1940's. I know
    Nothing else about the man. Anyone out there that could provide
    Information? My name is Jim Veta. You can email at jveta@aol.com
    Thanks.

    Robert Washburn is from Duluth Minnesota and is around 90 years old now. There is very little information about him, that I have been able to find. However, "History Buff' has started a file on him and can give you more information.

    R.W. Washburn did Model 21's but I have a Grade V Model 12 that he did gold inlays on the animals. My gun was made in 1951.
