If anyone is interested in owning an original TUNA VALLEY from the early 1900's, I have a contact. Pearl and in excellent condition. I think the price is about $800 which is a fair amount for this super rare piece. Not mine, I make nothing, just thought I would pass this on. contact me and I can hook you up.
The rarest CASE related Stamp.

Hi, I believe that my grandfather is the person you are referring to. We met at the Case show in July. If anyone here has questions about it, or if they want to see a picture, I should be able to get one. Thanks.

I finally remembered to bring my camera today when I went to my grandfathers. Here is the knife. 1906 Tuna Valley (Case Bros.) pearl ladies knife, very rare, very petite.

Re: original TUNA VALLEY
One mistake though, it was not "CASE BROS" this was the collaboration of Case of Bradford and Platt's of Eldred when they combined. They competed with CASE BROS and eventually won by buying them out.
