Anyone have the “Baby Blue Catalogue” referred to in the last picture ad?

The 1895 catalog was a yellow cover, I believe.

A quick search finds a 1900 catalog with blue cover. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/fbHtVgzY/1900-catalog.jpg)

Yes. But a Savage Repeating Arms ad from 1896-1897 wouldn't be discussing a 1900 Savage Arms catalog.
I don't think there was an 1898 catalog.. because they'd lost Marlin to make them and didn't have a factory.
The 1899 caatalog wasn't blue. Mine is a yellow color.
Unfortunately my 1897 catalog is missing the cover. But believe it was a light blue..
