This is the first type of Walch revolvers, made with a brass frame. The first 1500 were made with brass frames, and the last 1500 had iron frames. There is a deer engraved on the left side of the frame and a dog on the right. It comes in a modern custom case with a Hicks cap tin, bird pattern powder flask, grooved double ball mold, loading rod, and additional accessories. Provenance: F. Theodore Dexter; The Frank Sellers Collection; Property of a Gentleman
