Sporting Ammunition. Skibbereen.

Two adverts from the 1860's showing the popularity of shooting in County Cork.

These advertisements placed by Mrs Vickery in the Skibbereen & Carbery Eagle Newspaper. This being only 10 years following the introduction of the Pinfire Breech-Loading Cartridge.





We are always interested in early advertisements relating to the Irish Guntrade.
