"COOK & BROTHER ATHENS, GEORGIA RIFLE. SN 6188. This is your standard, 33" Athens-made, Cook & Brother rifle. Lock on this gun is marked "Cook & Brother / Athens, GA / 1864 / 6188". These markings all occur forward of hammer. Confederate 1st National Flag is stamped rear of hammer. Bbl is marked on top "Cook & Brother / Athens GA / 1864" and also SN "6188". Rear band and nose cap are also serial numbered "6188". Lock screws and tang screw are also serial numbered "6188". Screws are buffed, however their serial numbers are difficult to read. Several two-digit secondary or assembly numbers are found on other parts. According to Mr. Michel's notes, "With the fall of New Orleans, Cook & Brother moved production to Athens, GA, where this two-band rifle was produced. In extraordinary condition and all original throughout, the lockplate is well marked, forward of the hammer, 'Cook & Brother' and 'Athens Ga 1864' and at tail a depiction of the Confederate National Flag. All components, nose cap guards, barrel, lockplate, triggerguard, and buttplate are all marked with serial number 6188, indicating it was made close to the end of company production. Provenance: Yale University, Jack Malloy" This is a really fine Cook rifle in condition not often found on these guns. The gun was cleaned in the style in which institutions used to clean guns in the early 20th century. CONDITION: Metal surfaces on this gun have been cleaned bright, making some markings and SNs difficult to fully read. Bbl clearly shows the twist where bbl was made from twisted iron. Brass bands, trigger guard, nose cap, and buttplate are cleaned and polished. Stock is lightly sanded and varnished, but still retains fairly sharp edges. A 4" x 1/2" large sliver of wood has been replaced, adjacent to ramrod channel between bands. There is also a repaired chip approx. 1" at toe of buttstock 4-31289 JS127 (20,000-25,000)"
