""Bang-Bang" … he is a lemon-and-white dog, whelped in January 1881, and is by "Price's Bang" x "Princess Kate". "Bang" was by "Cobham's Bang" x "Vesta", and "Princess Kate" was by "Andrew Ponto" x "Andrew's Sappho". He was purchased in England by Mr. G. De F. Grant for the club (Westminster Kennel Club) in 1883, and, though then only two years old, had distinguished himself in the field trials." -- Outing, June 1888

""Bob": ... Mr. G.W. Amory, of Boston, imported a litter brother of "Bang-Bang" a short time before the latter dog came over. This was "Bob", a black and whtie dog and a very good one in every respect. He was shown on the bench several times and won second at Boston in 1882, second in 1886 and third at New York in 1885. He was bred to very little, but notwithstanding this he sired "Bounce" (out of "Sal"), who divided third in the All-age Pointer Stake of the U.S. field trials at New Albany, Miss., in 1893, and won third in the All-age stake of the New England trials in 1894." -- Hochwalt, 1911

""Bang-Bang" was imported by the Westminster Kennel Club in 1883. ... He was whelped in January 1881, and was bred by F.C. Lowe, a gentleman who was a very enthusiastic breeder of pointers at this thime, and who was also a very entertaining contributor to the English sportsmen's press, writing under the mon de plume of "Leatherhead.". ... "Bang-Bang" was a medium sized dog and remarkably well balanced, good in bone, muscle and general conformation. He was lemon, or orange and white in color, with a black nose and dark rims around the eyes; this latter peculiarity was considered his greatest fault. His neck was long and clean and his chest remarkably deep and narrow in front, but the ribs were well sprung back of the shoulders. ... Bang-Bang's breeding reveals to us a combination of the Whitehouse, Sefton and Bang blood. His sire is "Price's Bang" and his dam "Princess Kate", who was by "Ponto" out of "Sappho", the latter by "Lord Sefton's Sam" out of "Flirt"; "Ponto", by "Whitehouse's Hamlet" out of Parrott's bitch." -- Hochwalt, 1911, The Pointer and Setter in America

""Bang-Bang", imported by the Westminster Kennel Club in 1883, was a much more satisfactory dog than "Sensation". He was just a little past two years of age at the time of his arrival on these shores, but during that short period of life he had already gained an enviable record as a field trial performer. he was whelped in January, 1881, and his breeder was none other than F.C. Lowe, who wrote considerably on breeding in those days under the nom de plume of "Leatherhead". -- Hochwalt, 1923, The Modern Pointer

""Bang-Bang" was a medium-sized lemon and white dog, with dark rims around the eyes, which gave him a rather unusual expression; but he was a well-balanced animal, with a wealth of bone and muscle, well-sprung rigs, great depth of chest and a long, clean neck. ... "Bang-Bang" may strictly be called a combination of the Whitehouse, Sefton and Bang blood, for his sire was "Price's Bang", and his dam, "Princess Kate", which was by "Ponto" out of "Sappho", the latter by "Sefton's Sam" out of "Flirt", while "Ponto" was by " Whitehouse's Hamlet" out of "Parrott's Bitch". -- Hochwalt, 1923, The Modern Pointer
