| Ken, The gun you have was most likely engraved by Vasco Revera an Italian engraver. I have seen several S&W's engraved by him. Some are pictured in the various Italian engraving books by Mario Abbiatico. He usually signed his work: Revera, V. Italian engravers routinly sign their work last name, first name or initial. This is sometimes true of gunmakers as well such as Fausti, Stephano whose name was Stephano Fausti. Regards, C. Roger Bleile |
