Manufactured in 1936, this is an outstanding example of a pre-World War II Colt Ace pistol. Blade front and adjustable notch rear sights, the two-line address and patent dates on the left side of the slide, the Rampant Colt behind the serrations, and the Colt Ace logo and caliber markings on the right. The frame is marked "60" on the right side of the trigger guard, "X/VP" on the left and fitted with a short checkered trigger, wide checkered hammer, checkered arched mainspring housing, a set of fully checkered grips, and a two-tone magazine with Colt Ace marked base. Includes a Colt maroon box that is very faintly numbered on the bottom (possibly to match the gun).
