Schuller Museum of Arms & Armor

Post by James Arlen Gillaspie »

I recently came across a reference dating from the early 70's to the Schuller Museum of Arms and Armor in Laconia, New Hampshire. I'd never heard of the place. Anyone know if it actually existed?

Thanks! That explains a lot. Lucky for our Canadian friends, unlucky for U.S. I wouldn't have to go so far to see it if it had stayed put. Boy, that is one ugly piece of Schmidt that they've featured.

Heh, yeah, its pretty ugly. I like the way they describe it as a high quality reproduction. Hell, if thats the case, I must be making the real thing. :wink:

Schmidt was better than some, not as good as others. It seems like he produced alot of work. Now, Winkelmayer was pretty darned good. :wink: ..Otto
