Description:

Manufactured in 1959 and subsequently embellished by engraver J. Rudolph of Houston, Texas, who has signed his work on the left side of the frame. The revolver features attractive, near full coverage floral, scroll engraving on a punch dot background, engraved monogram above the back strap serrations, adjustable square notch rear sight, ramp blade front sight, and stag grips.

Rating Definition:

Very fine overall as embellished by J. Rudolph. The revolver retains 99% plus of the blue finish showing very limited, barely noticeable spotting. The barrel has been shortened, and the grips are slightly undersized at the top. Mechanically excellent.
