Help with 32. Identifying

Hello I'm 24 years old and I'm new to SW collecting I recently picked up this 32. I don't know much about it and would appreciate any insight paid 600$ because I fell in love if I overpaid o well, it has 5 screws sn 584145
It feels slightly smaller than my model 37
As said above it is a 32 Hand Ejector Improved I frame, and it’s a 1st version. It’s not a pre model 30 but the next model, the model of 1953 New I Frame became the model 30 in 1957.

The 2nd version Improved I frame has a ramp front sight, barrel rib and is 4”.
The 3 1/4” barrel became a 3”.

I really appreciate the history, and I'm very happy to have found this forum website I've had a difficult time prior finding history on SW. I think it's amazing the innovation and craftsmanship that went into these revolvers!
