    The gun case was known as a leg-of-mutton or lamb's leg Gun case. They were designed for people living in the city To efficiently carry their breakdown guns on a train for a day of hunting in the country. They were very well made but the first thing to deteriorate is the liner on the inside.

    The shotgun appears to be a V grade Parker, number 2 frame made in 1901.
    The leg of mutton case may be at the same time period, but was not produced by Parker.
    Giving valuations, without close examination would be only speculative, and in my opinion, a fool’s errand.
