Sams thread got me thinking....I remembered doing some banknote style engraving at some time, and then I remembered, it was on the first gun of the set of 'The African Hunter Series' Sir. Samuel Baker by H&H.
The side plates were copies off Bakers sketches which were pen and ink and engraved in banknote style.
This was the first time I attempted this method. I don't think i've done it since.
I've just found this pull of the pistol cap.
