Manufactured in 1963, this second generation Colt Single Action Army revolver was subsequently engraved by Master Engraver Joseph Condon, sometimes referred to as the "Engraver to The Stars". Condon worked out of Las Vegas, Nevada and custom engraved guns for legends like Elvis Presley, Jerry Lewis, Buddy Hackett and Frank Sinatra. This particular revolver was reportedly engraved for the world famous entertainer Sammy Davis Jr. Davis of course was a member of the famous 1960s "Rat Pack" along with his friend Frank Sinatra and members Dean Martin, Joey Bishop and Peter Lawford. Sammy Davis Jr. was a singer, musician, comedian and actor. Davis died on May 16, 1990 in Beverly Hills, California at the age of 64 of complications from throat cancer.
