Paterson, N J. – Colt’s Pt.” Cylinder roll scene of stagecoach holdup including the word “COLT,” round back cylinder, step frame, no loading lever or capping cut out, wedge with spring. Numbered 718; back of barrel numbered 718; back of cylinder also numbered 718.
This revolver was reportedly brought back to the United States in 1977, from England by the late dealer/collector Alan Kelley.
From the Tom Seymour estate.
Provenance: Tom Seymour Collection
This example of the famous Colt Texas Paterson is one of the finest known to collectors today. It retains the majority of its original blue finish on the barrel and wedge. The frame shows a mixture of original case color hues along with natural toning of the finish. The hammer shows original muted case colors. The cylinder displays almost all of its original cylinder scene, the action is crisp as are the matching original serial numbers and the grips are very good showing considerable original varnish. An excellent opportunity to obtain an all matching and beautiful Texas Paterson with great overall condition and rare case hardening.
