Manufactured in 1875, this is a very fine example of Colt's New Line .30 revolver with the desirable etched panel barrel. The top of the barrel is marked with the standard two-line address and "COLT NEW 30" is marked in the acid etched panel on the left. The patent date is marked on the bottom of the barrel under the cylinder pin along with the serial number, which is repeated on the butt and inside the right grip panel in pencil. It has standard features and is fitted with a pair of smooth rosewood grips. Includes a hardwood presentation case with blank brass escutcheon on the lid, cleaning rod, and a box of cartridges that appears full/factory sealed. Provenance: The Charles Marx Collection
