Manufactured from 1902 to 1906. Smith & Wesson only manufactured approximately 4,575 1st Model Ladysmith revolvers circa 1902 to 1906. The top of the barrel is marked with the two line address/patent dates flanked by Maltese crosses, caliber marking on left barrel side, and S&W Trade Mark logo on left side of frame. Nickel finish, blue hammer and trigger, and fitted with smooth pearl grips with gold S&W medallions.

Very good. The revolver retains 90% original frosted nickel finish with some high edge wear and scattered minor flaking. The hammer and trigger have a smooth dark patina. The grips are excellent with light handling marks. The markings are crisp and clear. The action is fine.
