Gun "A" was manufactured in 1920 and gun "B" was manufactured in 1906 and both revolvers were subsequently professionally embellished with traditional Texas cattle brand pattern pioneered by Cole Agee and carried on by Weldon Bledsoe. This highly desirable pattern was developed in the 1940/50s and depicted the more prominent and historic Texas cattle brands used in the 1880s and early 1900s. The engraving covers nearly all of the surface and is in the typical Western style, all on a punch dot background. Although the work is unsigned, the quality is that of a well accomplished master engraver. The revolvers wear a set of pearl grips featuring jewel eyed relief carved steer heads with gold horns and nose rings on the right grip panel. The revolvers have matching respective serial numbers on the frame, trigger guard, and back strap and retain the correct Colt markings. The ejector rod housing, cylinder, hammer, and trigger are plated in gold, and the remaining surfaces are plated in silver. The revolvers are housed in an accompanying book case entitled "Colt Frontiers: .32 WCF 339482 and 281829."
