"Note the 38.55 Winchester rifle leaning on porch rail beside Frank. This and the .56 were since referred to as the guns that "won the West". Frank holds a .22 Winchester that got many grouse and some deer. The 38.55 W. was Frank Tooker Sr's and now belongs to grandson Fred Reedel--a keepsake from early days on Cortes Island."
