I do not.....I've got no literature on it nor have I ever seen one. It's cool though!

Very Neat Book! The Grips are interesting I have seen a few plastic pearlized looking grip over the years that someone put the medallions on both sets had the medallions glued in not staked.

Being that is a really old picture, are they in fact "pearl" (nacre) the ones we've seen over the years did not have medallions , we were told by the grip makers they did NOT like to work with pearl not good to breathe "nacre"" and some said they worked on them "In water" keep the dust down??? and if you tried to stake them they would shatter??? and the cutters would cause the material to 'chip' all too easily.......hhhhhmmm
Yes, there are Jay Scotts and Pearlite ( faux pearl) ones out there and often as Steve said the medallions would simply be glued in place ( too thick to properly stake)

Cool looking book, and obviously "vintage" to the era,,,,,,books and clocks have been 'cutout' to hide guns as far back as handguns go....... 8-) :roll: ;)
