Found these here:

These are circa 1930 according to the website.

Yep. but without the cartridge picture. I went on that same site, nice place. I need to sell them for a lady, but Ebay is out due to rules. Any ideas? Thanks. DM

 That's most likely from the turn of the century. Probably early 1900's. Best place to sell them at auction is Wards Collectables, Auction Arms, or Gunbroker, unless she's in a hurry to sell them. They should get a pretty decent price from a Winchester collector, or someone with a rifle in that caliber.
