*SPECIAL SAVAGE 1907 ENGRAVED AUTOMATIC PISTOL. SN 226557. Cal. 32 ACP. Standard configuration. This gun features class C, referred to as Special, engraving attributed to William Gough. Engraving consists of flowing acanthus scroll work covering approx. 75-80% of pistol with initials “BAD” monogrammed on backstrap. Fitted with Mother of Pearl grips with Savage Indian logo fitted with external hammer. Accompanied by a 1996 dated Savage historian’s letter for this pistol which does not list grade and style of engraving but does indicate a work order(#232-1) which is likely for the special treatment grips and engraving by Gough. During this period it is not uncommon to find factory records for special order guns that are less than comprehensive. Regardless, a lovely and unique M1907. PROVENANCE: Wes Adams Estate Collection. CONDITION: Overall gun is near excellent with 95% orig blue with some very minor flaking front of bbl. Mechanics are excellent. 4-44743 LM55 (3,000-5,000)
