I just bought a beautifully engraved Colt Bisley SA. It has the engravers initials WBE inside the loading gate. Can anyone tell me who the engraver is?
Thanks,
Hugh
I don't believe it is Wilton English because his middle initial is L. There is a William Ellis in Florida but I don't know his middle initial and I've never seen his work. I have looked through all of my files of engravers of the past and can not find anyone with the initials WBE.
Roger,
Thanks for the effort. I have identified him and he is in Florida. His name is William B. Ellis and he is a member of the Engravers Guild, and Knife Makers Guild. The gun is pictured on his website: http://www.willyb.com/images/Dave-1.jpg
