Produced between 1871 and 1873. Blade front and notch rear sights, with "LITTLE JOKER" on the top barrel flat and the one line New Haven address on the left flat. The cylinder, barrel and frame all show scroll engraving with punch-dot backgrounds, along with a spiral pattern on the side plate, zigzags on the top strap, and a burst pattern around the model marking. Grips are smooth panels with a bird's head butt and matching serial number inside the left panel.

Excellent, with approximately 95-97% of the original nickel finish. The cylinder has been polished bright, with some mild spotting. Aged brass is visible on the high edges of the frame, along with scattered spotting and areas of pin-prick pitting at the muzzle and on the hammer. Grips are excellent, with minimal varnish loss and mild pressure dents. Action is excellent.
