This cartridge, originally from the Woodin collection is also the specimen that was featured in the April 2017 edition of the ECRA English group newsletter. It is loaded with a paper patched STEEL round nose bullet. The noted from the ECRA bulletin were as follows by Bill Woodin – “…photos of a mysterious cartridge from the Austrian Wolf collection, which I have had for many years. From his notes, shown below, it appears to be related to the 1890s battles in the Sudan, around Khartoum and Omdurman. Although the notes mention a Gatling, the only rapid-fire guns listed in the book “Khartoum” by Michael Asher are Maxim, Gardner and Nordenfelt, but there is no information about the weapons used on the gunboats”. Up until now there has not been any additional information regarding this cartridge.
