Biographical NoteMr. Henderson, who resides in Georgia, engraved weapons as a hobby. Besides the Bicentennial rifle that he engraved for President Ford, he also engraved a miniature navy cannon for Gov. Jimmy Carter and the shotgun that the Atlanta Braves presented to Hank Aaron as part of the celebration in honor of Aaron's achievements in breaking the career homerun record in Major League baseball.
