| Brand: Nichols Industries | Country/Region of Manufacture: United States |
This is the big one. Advertised as King of the Cap Guns by Nichols Industries. A toy replica of the 1873 Peacemaker, it was quite a sight on Christmas mornings in the late 1950s early 1960s. We Buckeroos knew how to play Cowboys and Indians. We knew what was real and what was not! But wait, this is not a standard Stallion 45, this is the Elvis Morehead Special. It is a one of a kind Stallion I had refurbished by Elvis Morehead (known for his work on ...the Mattel Shootin' Shell line). You can check out the Nichols webpage - Nicholscapguns.com. Click on Capguns/Stallion 45 Mk II and scroll to the bottom. I have included six photos, the last of which shows what Elvis had to work with when he began the restoration. There is no another Stallion 45 MkII in the world like this one. The shadow box display is my work - a tribute to the Nichols family and is included with this auction. Note the orange tip as required.
