Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Weldon Bledsoe (1916-1995) was a United States Air Force B-17 “Flying Fortress” bomber pilot during World War II, and later a Texas-based engraver most commonly known for his contribution to the distinctly Texan style known as “Cattle Brand” engraving. The origin of cattle brand engraving is attributed to Cole Agee, a Fort Worth-based gun engraver. Agee is purported to have personally tutored Bledsoe in the cattle brand style. Cole Agee was believed to have engraved 15-20 cattle brand guns prior to his death in 1955. Weldon Bledsoe is attributed with engraving some 300-400 of these guns during his career. These Bledsoe Cattle Brand guns are almost always marked with his ‘2 Lazy 2 P’ brand with no other signature.
