Lot 1388:
Contico Wildlife Motif Hard-Shell Rifle Case with Foam Interior
Description
A black molded plastic hard-shell gun case featuring a textured exterior and a decorative relief panel. The lid displays a detailed wildlife scene depicting bears in a forest, ducks in flight over water, and a stag with antlers. The case is designed for the transport and storage of a long firearm, such as a rifle or shotgun. It is constructed with a full-length integrated carrying handle, multiple plastic hinged latches, and two integrated padlock tabs for security. The interior is lined with convoluted gray “egg-crate” style foam padding intended to protect the contents from movement and impact. The exterior of the case is embossed with the manufacturer’s name “CONTICO” in all-capital block letters on the left side of the front panel. The construction features reinforced ribbing on the exterior for structural integrity.
Condition report:
The exterior shows signs of moderate use including surface scuffs, scratches, and accumulated dust and dirt across the plastic panels (photo 1, 3). The decorative relief panel displays some minor surface wear but remains clearly legible. The interior gray foam exhibits significant discoloration, yellowing, and staining consistent with age and storage (photo 4). The plastic latches and hinges appear intact, though they show typical surface wear. Mechanical function of the latches was not tested but they appear physically present.
