Description:
AUTHENTICATED WITH DOCUMENTATION WELLS FARGO MARKED S&W MODEL 1905 M&P 4TH CHANGE .38 SPECIAL, 6" BARREL, #418XXX, MADE C. 1920. This fine condition example comes with a copy of a letter dated May 24, 1966 on "Wells Fargo Bank , Head Office, 464 California Street, San Francisco, California 94120" stationary "BILL OF SALE" that lists 62 S&W M&P 6" revolvers plus numerous other handguns BY SERIAL NUMBER, as being sold to Ellingsons Sport Center. This revolver is on the list. Interestingly, most of the M&Ps are serial numbered very close together indicating that they were from one major purchase from Smith & Wesson. "W. F. & Co." neatly stamped on the right side of the frame just under the "Made in U.S.A." marking. The stamping was done with one stamp, not with individual letter stamps. This same stamp is also on the bottom of the frame under the grips. Overall fine+ blue with only some minor flaking/spotting on the frame and blue flaking brown on the back strap. Aside from some minor edge wear and handling marks/scratches this revolver shows nice deep original blue. Exc. markings, fine case color on the hammer and trigger, diamond checkered walnut grips are lightly pencil numbered inside and match the frame cylinder and barrel serial number. Grips show a minor and very small edge chip on the right bottom. "H.C.R." very lightly surface-scratched in the bottom right grip. Tight action, bright bore. Probably carried a bit, but shot little. Great 100+ year old authenticated/documented Wells Fargo Smith!
