Well, stand by. I'm backing up my crackberry right this minute. You'll have to wait on the pics. The letter says Hilbert ordered one and it was shipped from Smith on Dec. 14, 1937. He was an OKCPD detective at the time. Shipped with a 3.5" barrel, Marble gold bead sight, U notch rear, hump back hammer and checkered Magna grips. It was sighted in at 25 yards with 38/44 Supper (misspelling is Roy, not me) Police .38 Special ammo using a dead center hold. Shipment was for a single unit.
The only thing different is the addition of a Tyler T-grip, which has obviously been there awhile.
