Catalog Page: 134
Class: Curio & Relic Handgun
Description:

Both revolvers in this lot were manufactured in 1924. Blade front and groove rear sights, with the two-line address and patent dates on top of the barrel, the Rampant Colt on the left side of the frame, and "VP" and "3" on the left side of the trigger guard. With a pair of Colt "C" imprint grips. Included with the revolvers is a black leatherette/cloth soft case that has spaces for both guns and folds up for transport; notes from the consignor state that this set was put together for a Colt salesman, who could use it to let potential buyers feel the difference in weight and dimensions between the 2 calibers.

Rating Definition:

Excellent, with 98% plus of the original blue finish, showing some light handling marks overall and a few tiny areas of spotting. The grips are excellent. The case is very good, with some flaking and tearing of the leatherette material and possibly some absent straps. Mechanically excellent.
