I just noticed something pretty interesting about the boy and the Merrill he was holding. Look at the forend part of the stock - it's stubbed. I went back to my list of Merrills and between serial 468 and 588 the change occurred where the forend became tapered.
Initial check of my photos and auction ads showed no Merrills with cartouches, up to at least serial 1999. I'll nail down that earliest cartouched Merrill. Should have already determined that, given all the photos I have. Eric.
