Circa 1921 Heiser holster catalog No.19 with 64 numbered pages. The catalog is in fair condition with all pages, some separated. Apparently, this is the 1st "Son of a Gun" catalog, except the rear cover kid, dressed up as a cowboy, is pictured in flesh tones; while the overall front cover and rear cover has hints of red. Interestingly, the rear cover shows a poster with a Bill Hart caption. Bill Hart was a silent movie cowboy star from 1914 to about 1925. The circa 1934, completely red colored front and rear cover "Son of a Gun" 48 page catalog has the same rear cover poster of Bill Hart, except without a caption, as by 1934 Bill Hart had faded into memory.
