I couldn't find the other thread of old photos posted. My dad had quiet a different childhood. My grandfather, Ray Simcoe, was a bush pilot and knew many old time famous hunters, even the odd royals dawned his wings. I still have prince Phillips bamboo flyrod given to grandpa during a back country fly in. My grandpa was best friends with Jack O'Connor and John Jobson. I have many personal letters and the photos of them together. My dad used to say when I was a kid, and didn't know better, how his firat god father was jack then after Jack passed his second god father was john. These photos are of John and grandpa.A great bear, hunting gear and a personal or grandpa and and John. Hope you enjoy. FYI, lonewolf I may or may not have told you. The 270 you bought from me was jacks then John's. Happy hunting. I still have the dutch oven John had and his tent. My brother and sister still have alot of there other hunting gear that we still use every year.
