Hubley was from Lancaster, Pennsylvania and
started in 1894. The Hubley company made some of the finest Cap Guns you ever
saw. The Texans and the Cowboy were especially popular. They made guns with
nice scrollwork and some that were gold. They are still considered very
valuable collector's items. If you collect Cap Guns, then (besides Nichols
Industries Cap Guns, of course!!!) you have got to have a good collection of
Hubleys.
One of their most popular Cap Guns was from The Rifleman
television show starring Chuck Connors and Johnny Crawford. It had that special
cocking lever so he could really fire quickly. There are several examples in
this Hubley section.
Then there is their fabulous Colt 45 that was a full-sized model
of the Civil War pistol. I love it!

PLEASE HELP! There won't be any "Art Trade Fair
Shows" this year because of the COVID-19 virus, so I won't be able to sell my
glass ornaments at those shows. And money is tight for the USA (Pray for our
leaders and Jesus said "Pray for those who would spitefully use you."...so with
money tight it's just a hope that we can receive contributions.
Believe me, even small contributions help! This is the only
site where you are likely to find most of the Cap Guns ever made. The site will
always be free to use, but it's not free for me.
YOU CAN CLICK BELOW TO HELP OUT! (Contritubutions start at
only $10, but you can make it more if you can afford it.) (And we
absolute refuse to put you on a
mailing list or sell your e-mail address.)

How's

where I got it. If these were your photos, then write in and tell me your name
so I can give you proper credit.

Here's
another unusual novelty item from Hubley.
Thanks to Don Raker
for the photos above and Doug Hamilton for the one below. |
|

And thanks to Jamie Linford,
here is a carded version of the same gun. Jamie says that it is extremely rare
to see a carded version, as they are usually found as the Panther Pistol
Derringer Set. |

This is pretty
ridiculous, but it does illustrate how in the "Good Old Days" parents weren't
as stupid (read: POLITICALLY CORRECT) as they are now. Photo by Mitch

Hubley
Sure-Shot
|
|
|
|
|
|

I put this Cap Gun under the
Wyatt Earp model because they are so much alike.
It's truly
amazing how many Cap Guns Hubley made. But this one isn't seen very
often.
Thanks to Don Raker for this contribution! |

Hubley
Cowpoke
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This Cap Gun Model by Hubley is
EXACTLY the same gun as the one on the Halco page. But there is a good reason
for that. They were made by the same peoplejust with different lettering
on the side.
If you will remember, Halco was a distributing company and
several other companies made things for them. Leslie-Henry also made Halco
guns.
However, this gun has its own value, for if you want the entire
collection, you are going to have to get it. |

Hub (Cast Iron)
|
|
|

This old
cast-iron toy gun is a Hubley. It is called a "HUB" and has the characteristic
red star on its grip in just the right spot.

another Hub, but this one is nickel plated.
