Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) "The revolver as a factor in the development of America has never received serious consideration, either from the historian or the literary man.

The sensational story-writers, the moving pictures, and even worthier literary men, are loath to abandon this original idea." (Walter Prescott Webb, University of...
