Manufactured in 1884/85. The period S&W hard rubber checkered extended grips are numbered to a different gun. Matching serial numbers are found on the butt, cylinder, barrel latch and barrel. Comes with a fitted leather bound case featuring a Hartley & Graham of New York retailer ribbon label on the silk lined interior of the lid and containing a bore brush, case key and cartridge block holding 27 cartridges.

Excellent overall, retaining 99% plus of the original nickel, blue (trigger guard) and casehardened (trigger and hammer) finishes with minimal handling evidence and crisp grip checkering. Mechanically excellent. The case is fine with minor-moderate wear to the exterior and some staining on the interior. Overall, an attractive Hartley & Graham cased .38 Double Action Revolver for any S&W collection. Provenance: Dr. Gerald Klaz collection.
