I saw this S&W .38 "Safety" at a pawnshop up in Northern Georgia that has what looks like factory engraving. I am not an expert and have no engraved guns in my stable. However, this is a place of experts and maybe someone here can tell if this looks like real art work or just "pawnshop engraving". I know a factory letter would probably answer the question but the old gentlman that has it is not inclined. My thanks to "Mrs. Bruce" for posting the excellent photos.
