Quite the find ......of course Allen-frame is going to have to amend the Highway Patrolman thread now. Some of the -2's even have lower serial numbers. Looking forward to hearing more about the gun.

WOW! I'm speechless. that is awesome! Lets find some more......and Bigfoot and Jimmy Hoffa while we're at it!
I WANT ONE!!!!!!
Why, were they each holding one when they were spotted or went missing?
I couldn't believe my eyes!! I have been around here for quite awhile and no one has seen a 28-1 until now. And a 4 screw frame to boot! You absolutely must get that lettered.
Congratulations. You may have the only one ever made! Well, probably not, but there are not very many, for sure.

Bill - I talked to OP on the phone right after initial post and asked him about the the L stamp on cylinder.........
He said that it has the L stamp

Mick, when you get a chance, get me a lottery ticket and mail it to me. what a find. let us know how it shoots. LOL. thanks for sharing. lee
I am speechless! Well, almost....congratulations Mick!
It's a Miracle!
Amazing! Congratulations on a truly unique acquisition. I feel privileged to even gaze upon a picture of one. I also live in Tempe. Does your gentleman acquaintance have any more one-of-kind guns that he'd like to sell?

Thanks for all the comments gentlemen. It was an extremely lucky find but, I do not do lottery tickets. My next search will be for Jimmy Buffet's lost salt shaker.
My other S&Ws are rather common, a 4" 1955 HP, a 4" Model 28, a 4" 28-2 and a 6" 28-3 rounding out the HPs with a 4" 25-5 and a 2 1/2" 19-2.

As my dad would have said (God rest his soul), "Oh my!"
I've been looking for a dash one for maybe 30 years! This is the first one I've ever seen. Good going!!! Congrats on finding an extremely rare bird. This encourages me to keep looking.
WOW!
