I agree with Richard 100% and have been doing the exact same thing for the 40 years that I have been collecting S&Ws. I will be at the Tulsa symposium trying to sell most of my collection but will never try to represent any of them as "100%" factory original. Interested collectors will use their own judgement on what they see with their own eyes. Some of the most highly regarded S&W experts will be there to help them.
That is my 2 cents worth;
Mike
