Collectors here will give you solid info about a 99. Letters are cool for the info and official history from original factory ledgers.
Copied and pasted from the "misc good info" sticky on this forum:
John T. Callahan, Savage Arms Historian 53 Old Quarry Road Westfield, MA 01085
New prices as of 12/1/2006:
Savage 1895's, 1899's and 99's are $30.00
Other Savages are $25.00.
Stevens are $20.00.
A.H. Fox Sterlingworths-$30.00.
Graded doubles are $40.00.
Send serial number and details of the item, allow 5-6 weeks for delivery.
Make payable to John T. Callahan
NOTE: If you state that you are a "24" member and list your "24" name you can purchase the Savage 1895's, 1899's and 99's letter for $25.00 each.
NOTE: JC has requested that you not send for more than 3 letters at a time. Big orders put him behind and cause other peoples requests to set so that they do not get answered in a timely manner. Thanks.

I believe John has recently moved. Is the above address the most up to date?

I'm pretty sure John and his wife said they were building a new home at that time when we were at the feast on Sept 10 2011. It might pay to check it out.

The new place is only about 10 miles from the old. I'm sure that the PO will forward till we get new info from him.

I thought someone posted his new address, at which point I wrote this address down. If it is wrong, someone needs speak up.
