The ones I know for sure: Burnt Orange Bone, Antique Green Bone, Stag, and Mother of Pearl. I think there were a couple of celluloids, but I would advise against the celluloid as it is especially volatile on the Winchesters (and Case Classics).Wow, thank you. Good to know. I'll have to look for a #39097. What handles were available?
