Manufactured early in the range from 1925 to 1936. Patridge blade front and adjustable square notch rear sights, with the one-line address on the rib, "SMITH & WESSON" on the left side, and the caliber marking on the right. Fitted with smooth S&W medallion grips. Includes an original blue steel S&W case, two-piece cleaning rod, and screwdriver.

Excellent, retaining 98% original blue, some scratches and wear, and scattered light spotting. The wood is very good with moderate dings and scratches on both panels. The case exterior is very fine with minor storage evidence and the interior is very good with some staining and tearing. Mechanically excellent. Provenance: Dr. Gerald Klaz collection.
