Manufactured in 1910. Features round blade front sight marked with the standard "Police/Positive" and "38 Special." on the left side and the standard Colt address on the top as well as the numeral "1" on the bottom at the frame. Both grip panels are numbered to the gun. Included with the revolver is a letter from Deputy R.N. Stutsman stating this revolver, listed by serial number, was owned by Charles Brubaker (spelled Bluebaker in the letter), the former city marshal of Tombstone, Arizona. In his time as the city marshal, Brubaker more than once made the papers for his actions. The final and most notable being found guilty for discriminatory conduct in 1966 after jailing a government employee for forty-five minutes without charge which lead to a hearing with two delays. Following this incident, Brubaker agreed to remain city marshal until a replacement could be named. Stutman states in the letter that Brubaker gave him the revolver when he passed away.

Very good overall, 65% original blue finish remaining with a smooth brown patina on the balance, scratches, pitting and overall crisp checkering. Mechanically good. This is a revolver filled with stories just waiting to be told showing authentic wear and tear form being carried by a controversial Tombstone lawman.
