Description:

Manufactured in 1903 with standard markings and features including "(BISLEY MODEL) 32 W.C.F." on the left of the barrel, "2668" on the loading gate, and matching numbers on the frame, trigger guard, and back strap. The right grip features a relief carved eagle grasping an American flag. The included factory letter confirms the current configuration, apart from the replacement grips which are not listed, as well as shipment to George Tritch Hardware in Denver, Colorado on 16 September 1903.

Rating Definition:

Very good, retains 75% original blue finish and 50% case colors with the balance mostly a smooth grey patina and a few scattered patches of very light surface pitting. The high quality, later production, replacement grips are very fine with some scattered minor dings and scratches, and a repaired crack on the right panel. Mechanically excellent.
