my brother stumbled across an Iver Johnson break top

They are fixing up an old farm house and in the bottom kitchen cabinet inside a stationary box was a candy tin. Seemed too heavy. Lo and behold it was a fully loaded 32 S&W Iver Johnson and most of a box of shells. He figures it has been setting there for 40 plus years. He wasn't sure what he had and sent me a picture - the owlhead grips were a dead giveaway. From what I can figure it is a 1st model and intended for blackpowder. I told him not to dare shoot it. He ran across a Remington 22 pump in the attic last fall that I have in my possession - THAT is a lot of fun!
