I am curious if anyone knows anything about this large and old Winchester bullet board. The owner of it (family member) has passed away but I remember him saying that he thought there only a few ever made.

If that’s the real deal a ‘single W’ board sold at RIA last year for $41,000.

It’s the real deal. I have no idea what he paid for it but he was a very wealthy man. I feel like he told me there were only 3-4 made. Or maybe 3-4 still in existence.

One of the things that really makes it interesting is the infamous 70-150 Cartridge at the Top between Repeating Arms just under the Winchester name Logo Trade Mark.
MFG. around 1890 not many are known to have survived let alone produced. Very Desirable and sought after. The number 10 star shell on the left is missing similar to the one that sold in Heritage Auction in 2019. I would think the guy's over on the WACA Forum site could help with more information.

I’m not on the WACA forum but if someone is and wouldn’t mind sharing the link to this thread I’d appreciate it. I’d be interested in some info on it. This belonged to my wife’s uncle who passed away in 2020.

Texasaggie09: I have only seen a few of these for sale/in person and its been two decades since seeing the last one.
Yours appears to be in much better condition than the ones I have seen for sale in the past.
That is a valuable piece - but I am not sure at all what todays prices would be.
Be careful with it in your interactions.
