Manufactured in 1933, this is an excellent example of a pre-World War II Colt Ace semi-automatic pistol. Blade front and adjustable notch rear sights, the two-line address and patent dates on the left side of the slide followed by the Rampant Colt, and the Colt Ace logo and caliber markings on the right. The serial number is on the right side of the frame. The trigger guard is marked "87" on the right and "T/VP" on the left. It is fitted with a short checkered trigger, wide checkered hammer, checkered arched mainspring housing, a set of fully checkered grips, and a two-tone magazine with Colt Ace marked base. Includes the original Colt box.

Excellent, retains 95% of the original high polish blue finish with some light holster type wear visible on the leading edges of the frame and slide with some scattered light handling marks on the balance. The grips are also excellent with only the slightest handling marks and crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent. The box is fair with tape repairs, tears, and absent pieces of the lid, but the label and serial number remain legible.
