I have two, one with satin blue (S78XXX) and a later one in bright blue (S146XXX). Haven't lettered either but assume the satin blue is from 1951ish and the other from 1955/56. As Walter Rego suggests there may not be much premium, if any, for bright blue made about the time the factory went to all bright blue for the model. Hopefully others with better knowledge on the bright blue finish value will weigh in. However, the target trigger and target hammer and the unusual info about the shipping location combined with the bright blue would be worth a premium to me. How much, maybe $200 or so. Great classic revolver, enjoy!
