"You furnish the pictures, I'll furnish the War".
The expression was "You provide me with the photographs, and I'll provide you with the war" and it was uttered by Yellow Journalist William Randolph Hearst.
Short Answer: William Randolph Hearst, of the New York Journal. Long Answer: In 1896, Spain responded to the Cuban revolt by sending general Valeriando Weyler to Cuba to restore order. Weyler tried to crush the rebellion by herding the entire rural population of central and western Cuba into barbed-wire concentration camps. Here civilians could not give aid to rebels. An estimated 300,000 Cubans filled these camps, where thousands died from hunger and disease. Weyler's actions fueled a war over newspaper circulation that had developed between the American newspaper tycoons William Randolph Hearst and Joseph Pulitzer. To lure readers, Hearst's New York Journal and Pulitzer's New York World printed exaggerated accounts - by reporters such as James Creelman - of "Butcher" Weyler's brutality. Stories of poisoned wells and of children being thrown to the sharks deepened American sympathy for the rebels. This sensational style of writing, which exaggerates the news to lure and enrage readers, became known as *yellow journalism*. Hearst and Pulitzer fanned war fever. When Hearst sent the gifted artist Frederic Remington to Cuba to draw sketches of reporters' stories, Remington informed the publisher that a war between the United States and Spain seemed very unlikely. Hearst reportedly replied, "You furnish the pictures and I'll furnish the war."
116 were engraved in Belgium for Remington's international branch and sold overseas not in the U.S.
I also have a model 11 with serial number 17xxx. Remington told me it was produced in 1905 the first year they were made.
I'd get in touch with Remington. They can tell you. I would expect that it's possible, as they should be pretty interchangeable, however, it would be unlikely.
Marion Davies and Heast had a daughter. She is buried with her mother in LA. Marion was buried uder her real last name Her dauther was rasied to be known as William Hearst's neice. This was on the TCM channel March 30, 2011. As a child my grandmother told me that Marion Davies had a child but that it was a secret, she knew because my grandmother sister help deliver the child. When I visited Hearst Castle they always say that nno children were born there, but there is a nursery, I did tell the tour guide whatmy grandmother told me but they stick to their story. Until tonight when TCM had the tour of the cemetery and finally confirmed that my grandma knew what she was talking about, I always believed her.
Canada told me that Baikal does not send parts and Remington no longer sells the Spartin or Baikal They will referr you to EAA corp
I WAS TOLD THAT REMINGTON DOES NOT GIVE AGES ON LINE. MAYBE AN E MAIL OR SNAIL MAIL WILL WORK.A Phone call, but if it's a model made 1921 or later it's date code stamped, before then need model and serial. Serials are not unique except for old doubles.
I recently purchased one well worn for 200 dollars, and was told buy one fellow at the gun show it was worth about 300 in working condition.
Apparently not...im in remington indiana and the cop followed me home and told me im not allowed to ride it on the road because its so small...and its an x-18 w/ light kit :(
Yes. I was told the date of manufacture was stamped in the side of the barrel at the receiver on the left. This is what was there9 0s 83.
You are referring to, I assume, the model 11 or Sportsman. Remington produced these guns under the Browning patent in the United States during the 1940s. I am looking for an answer to a similar question and I have not gotten an answer yet, but from people I have talked to I am told that good condition gun would fetch somewhere in the $250-$350 range, depending. From a collector or resale standpoint, it seems that Browning A-5's held their value more compared to the Remingtons.
