Lot 4007: Factory Engraved New Haven Arms Co. Volcanic No. 1 Pocket Pistol

OG - POOR- major or minor parts replaced; major replacement parts required and extensive restoration needed; metal deeply pitted; principal lettering, numerals and design obliterated, wood badly scratched, bruised, cracked or broken; mechanically inoperative; generally undesirable as a collectors firearm in its present state.

Marked "NEW HAVEN CONN/PATENT FEB. 14. 1854." The omission of the "VOLCANIC" markings indicates that the pistol was manufactured after Oliver Winchester assumed control of the Volcanic Repeating Arms Co. and reorganized it as the New Haven Arms Co. in April 1857. One of only an estimated 850 in this configuration before production ended in 1860. Magazine spring absent.
