Buy Cole Agee Master Engraved Colt Detective Special Revolver Online
Manufactured in 1948 and subsequently embellished by Master Engraver Cole Agee. The accompanying Agee family documents state that this revolver was bought by avid gun collector Chief Lynn “Tim” Kennedy and sent to Cole Agee for engraving. As indicated in the several included letters written by Agee, Chief Kennedy developed a friendship with Agee that began as early as 1948.
Although the serial number is not mentioned, the engraving on this revolver is clearly the work of Cole Agee. The revolver features near full coverage engraved floral scrollwork on a punch dot background. The Colt markings, including the Rampant Colt, are completely surrounded by the engraving.
Rating Definition:
Extremely fine as embellished by Master Engraver Cole Agee. The revolver retains 98% of the blue finish showing slight wear at the muzzle and on the back strap. The grips are very fine showing some typical hairline age cracks on the bottoms. Mechanically excellent.
