The Gunslinger Metal cases

[Cook]

interested to know how the etching was done? was it transferred using a chemical process?

I'm not certain, but I believe it was laser engraved.
Quite a bit of time as the case starts out black (or deep green). Everything that is white in the image (far more than 50%) is "lasered" out.
Forgive me for my naivete, but that's the way I understand it.

BTW,
One case is for auction. At this time, there are no additional cases available. That could change. That would only happen if the person who handled the manufacturing end of things has a spare. I was told that 2 cases were damaged during production.

If you want I can post some pictures of the two colors I have (red & grey) tonight when I get home.
Yes, 2 black cases were damaged.
I only have two I'm considering to let go.

Here are the 2 colors I mentioned:
Jerome (if he wishes) can post the black.

I haven't seen a posting of the black that you prefer.... Where is it posted?

I'm still confused Merlin, the posting from Jerome even says its green.. Yes, No?
So I guess what you mean is you prefer the green one not the black?

Since you have decided to eliminate me from conversation, and I as well, I don't see your purpose here and in this discussion. I posted my appreciation of the cases, I think they are nice. You can take the actual color up with someone else. Capish? Please, leave me be as I have done for you, Cool? Or are we all at war these days?

No Bill, no war intended, I just asked for clarification.
I guess simply put, sometimes you just confuse me.

The black case....

Potential art for back side of case:




Is there interest in this amongst collectors?

[Cook]

Thanks for coming to the rescue tdogz but those are not the black cases in question. (There are no droids here)
Never mind, I guess this has gotten rather silly at this point.
I had thought maybe someone else had posted the "New Black Dameron Gunslinger Case"

I have that black case Tim.. does it slid apart like that?

[Randall Flagg]

Hard to tell in this photo, but the case is a very deep green. The only one in that color:

This was the case picture I posted. It is hard to tell at this angle and with this lighting, but the metal is a deep green in color.

[Randall Flagg]

I have that black case Tim.. does it slid apart like that?

All of the cases were built to slide apart.

Cool!!! Thanks RF... I never knew that!!

Too bad you are unlikely to see the back of the cases...

Yes. And there are "lefty", and "righty" cases.

[Cook]

I have some inquiry's about the gunslinger cases, so this is where I'm at....
This year I finished the long process of finishing a project from a few years ago that was shelved for various reasons, mostly lack of art.
Jerome was able to acquire donated art from Dameron with the understanding that one of the finished cases would be donated to the Haven fund.
Jerome is the sole owner of the black cases he's referenced "righty".
The red & grey "righty" cases belong to me.
In addition there were a few "lefty" cases, one of which is the sole "green case" (this previously mentioned case is the one I donated to the haven fund)
The other "lefty" cases are mine as well.
For the record.... In all, there will never be more than 11 cases with the Dameron art produced.
(a few of the eleven are in limbo)

P.S. The previously posted Red Dameron case is no longer available.

P.S.S To Jerome, thank you for your help.

P.S. The previously posted Red Dameron case is no longer available.

Damn, wish I knew it was available.

[Randall Flagg]

The green case goes up for auction tomorrow.

No, it is too bad I will be unlikely to own one...

I have one of the 3 first black proto types. Got a signed 1st/1st in it

Is this one of the new cases from this year with the Dameron art?
