Manufactured in 1899 and shipped in the "soft" to Hartley & Graham New York. The included factory letter verifies the revolvers configuration other than being shipped with rubber grips. This revolver features broad floral scroll and punch dot engraving. The top of the barrel is marked with the one-line address, "45 COLT" on the left side and the two-line, three patent dates on the left side of the frame. The matching serial number is marked on the frame, trigger guard and back strap. Standard blade front and frame notch rear sights, oval shaped ejector head and fitted with two piece pearl grips, with a carved steer head on the right grip.

Very fine as Hartley & Graham engraved. The revolver retains 80% of the nickel finish with some loss on the front sight and minor flaking in the area of the cylinder stops. There are scattered areas of minor blistering (noticeable mostly on the back strap) and areas that have darkened with age. The grips remain very fine with a few minor dings and handling marks. The markings and engraving remain crisp and clear. The action is excellent.
