Manufactured in 1992 and subsequently hand engraved and gold accented by renowned Master Engraver Alvin White for the United States Historical Society and marked "MT/9" on the butt indicating it was the 9th revolver in the series. White has signed his work on the right side of the grip frame: "A.A.W." The included letter from that organization confirms the configuration including the "24-Karat gold highlights" and sterling silver finish. It has the standard markings and features of this rare commemorative and comes in a book style case designed to resemble Torme's autobiography. Limited edition of 100.
