Description:

Manufactured in 1977 with standard markings and features and subsequently masterfully embellished by Weldon Bledsoe, a former student of the legendary Cole Agee, who innovated the "cattle brand" style of engraving. This revolver shows the typical Texas style of those two well-known engravers with the almost 100% coverage cattle brand logos, floral scroll, and punch dot background engraving. The engraving is signed with Bledsoe's mark very discreetly on the right side of the frame and also bears the "2 Lazy 2 P" brand that is very typical of his work. Includes the original box.

Rating Definition:

Excellent as masterfully embellished by Weldon Bledsoe, retains 98% plus gold plated finish with some light dings and scratches. The grips are fine with a few hairline cracks and some chipping. Mechanically excellent. Overall, it is a wonderfully embellished revolver signed by one of the best known artisans of this style!
