Manufactured from 1915 to 1942 with this example subsequently professionally customized, featuring engraved oak and acorn, cross hatching and entwining line patterns, engraved "TWE" initials on trigger guard, jeweled hammer and trigger, and added solid rib and grip cap engraved to match. The butt lacks a serial number. Serial number "826316" appears on the barrel and cylinder.
