*Boxed* C1933 ‘Dolla’ Spring Pistol. 21493. - 21493
The story of Langenhan begins in 1842 Germany in the town of Mehlis, Thüringen with Valentin Friedrich Langenhan (10th June 1819 – 2nd March 1886). Valentin, who at this time was 23, along with his father, Johann Gottlieb Langenhan, 51, bought a shop in which they set up their gunsmith business. Together they produced and sold various gun parts such as flint-locks, hair-set locks, guards, caps, tools and knife blades. Johann (16th May 1791 – 15th January 1883) was a master gunmaker and personally trained his son Valentin in the art. It is said that Valentin preferred to use his second name Friedrich which is frequently seen in Langenhan company literature. Perhaps this was to differentiate himself from another Valentin Langenhan who operated an iron and steel works that was also located in Mehlis. Manufactured with five different variants this example retains the majority of its nickel plate. It comes with its original cardboard box and vintage pellets (8). It cocks and fires perfectly with a strong spring action. See page 78 of the Collectors Guide to air pistols by Dennis E. Hiller for reference. The price includes UK delivery. 21493.

A wreath of five oak leaves runs around the circumference on each side of the medal with a pair of acorns at the base.
