A couple of years ago I went to an estate sale at Hensley & Gibbs shop in Murphy, Oregon.
I live 40 minutes away.
I was told they had quite a library and the books were $2 each. Yes $2 each.
I was digging around and found a number of old Lyman loading manuals I was interested in.
There was a copy of Elmer Keiths "Sixguns".
I already had a copy but for $2 I though, what the heck, I`ll take this because i knew it was worth more than that.
When I got home, I opened it and found a it was signed by Elmer.
The inscription read " To Hensley and Gibbs, With all best wishes Elmer Keith Salmon, Idaho Oct 25, 1981.
This was in Elmers own handwriting
