Dated "October, 1897"on the title paged and marked "OBSOLETE" twice on the cover. There are also some faint stamped markings on the back. The catalog has images of various factory engraving, inlay, and carving options and their prices.

Fine with moderate overall storage type wear including some small tears, discoloration, fading and spine separation below the lower staple. This would be an excellent addition to any fine Winchester collection, especially those fortunate enough to possess factory engraved Winchesters pictured in the catalog with iconic factory engraving patterns.
