Re: RCA Silver Anniversary Old Army

That is interesting. I have mine, but it came with a wooden presentation case with the RCA logo on the top.

Re: Cards Anyone?

I was told that fewer than ten sets of the 1968 cards are known.

Re: Cards Anyone?

Lee...the early SR logo is my favorite! All of the cards are in their original containers and each deck is still sealed in cellophane.

Cards Anyone?

Playing cards from 1968, 1970, 1978 (left to right on the top) and the 90s. The set from 1968 is very rare.

New Model Super Blackhawk, 10 1/2-inch

I have always liked the long barreled revolvers and bought this one back in the mid-90s. I purchased the case on ebay some years ago and thought the two would go well together. I hope you do to :) . The stag grips were purchased from Lett Grips in the late 1980s. This 44 Magnum is also a great shoot...

Re: Blackhawk 44 Magnum, s/n 233

Lee...I have sent for a letter. It is not on the list of 44s shipped in November, but I will post the information when I receive it from Ruger.

BKH47, s/n 25958

Revolver is mint. It is later than my other two BKH47s that date to mid-1959 and has a front sight with the lower profile.

Re: Color case hardened old model????

Eight .357 Blackhawks with a color case hardened frame were manufactured in 1958. Consecutive serial numbers 5784-5791. Information in John Dougan's Book, Know Your Ruger Single-Action Revolvers, 1953-1963, page 131. :)
