Fox Products - Fox Guns re-print catalog

Interesting catalog - I don't know the year it was printed or even if it was ever distributed. There were 4 in the envelope pictured and they all look brand new. I've asked 2 Fox collectors and one claims to have seen one while the other has not. My immediate reaction was that perhaps a lawyer advised against it as they (Fox Products) are obviously trying to engender trust through association with a company and product line they no longer own or produce. Any thoughts? I'm going to put one on Ebay so I guess we'll see what it's worth (my intent is to acknowledge having found 4 in total; all in like condition, but only sell one)

It is a reprint of the "Campfire" Catalogue No. 25, which equates to 1912 the year the Godshalks took control. I don't know for sure when they first printed it, but all through the 1960s when anyone enquired of them about the Ansley H. Fox shotguns they use to make, Fox Products Co. sent them one of these catalogue reprints. There are at least two different printings with different positioning of the J.B. Godshalk statement on the inside of the front cover.

I've seen them sell on ebay for anywhere from $46 to $229.
