Description
This lot features classic examples of early 20th-century “pocket pistols,” a pair of Harrington & Richardson (H&R) Safety Hammer Double Action revolvers. The barrel markings on one of the revolvers clearly indicates the manufacturer as H&R Arms Company, Worcester, Mass. U.S.A., and the caliber as .32 S. & W. CTGE. Both revolvers clearly display the marking “SAFETY HAMMER / DOUBLE ACTION” on the top of the frame. The revolvers feature a nickel-plated finish and are fitted with original hard rubber grips, which display a distinct floral or checkered design. The revolvers have a 2.5” octagonal barrel and a 6-shot cylinder. Both pieces show significant evidence of age and use. The nickel plating is heavily worn, tarnished, and scratched.
