Description:

19,500 of these classic late 19th century pocket revolvers were manufactured between 1875 and 1887. This example has the standard markings and features aside from the highly attractive and timeless engraving consisting mainly of acanthus scroll patterns with wildcat portraits on either side along with the grape leaf scroll and "lady" motif DeGress grips. The left side of the frame has an absent screw. Provenance: The John Fox Collection

Rating Definition:

Very good, retaining 80% original nickel finish on the barrel and 75% original nickel finish on the frame with some handling marks and crisp engraving. The cylinder retains 50% original nickel finish with a cylinder drag line, light pitting on the front cylinder face, and crisp engraving. Grips are also very good with handling marks, high edge wear, and gilding remaining in the protected areas. Mechanically excellent.
