Welcome to the S&W forum Ella. If your handgun is a true "lemon squeezer", it is a .32 Safety Hammerless 2nd model, according to the serial number. This model was made starting in 1902 up into 1909. Yours likely dates from the middle of that period. In order to place a value range on this, you probably need to post photos of the gun and box.

I apologize for calling you Ella. Just saw that you signed your post "John". It's amazing that I can read, without it registering the first time!

Just saw your post, I also have a 32 Lemmon Squeeze S&W, 3 inch barrel, serial number 210380. Was wondering about date of manufacturer, value, etc.

Welcome to the Forum. Many thousands of this model were made, so to have any collector value it must have high condition, as you state. Post some pictures and we can give you a current value estimate. The original box, if in good condition, is a big plus in value. You have nice heirloom gun to pass along to the family descendants. Ed.
