Fantastic high condition Bliss & Goodyear, with original box, serial number 1763. Caliber .28 Percussion. A genuine pocket revolver from the Civil War era. The diminutive Bliss & Goodyear Model was the result of a pre-war partnership between Frank D. Bliss & Alfred D. Goodyear. The sole agent to distribute their revolver was the Union Knife Company.

The storage box is the original, period-correct version, with black fabric coating. This was commonly paired with early production revolvers. Later production models were contained in a simple, blue-colored cardboard box. Also features the original revolver-loading accessories: powder flask, brass bullet mold, and empty brass tin of Hick’s caps. All 4 items are in great shape. PROVENANCE: From the T. Joseph Cogan Collection. CONDITION: Great. Overall surface has about 50-60 % original blue finish remaining. Walnut grips are solid & in excellent condition. Mechanics are very good as well. Hammer locks firmly in both the half notch and full cock positions. Slight pitting and scratches exist on the frame. Partial re-bluing exists on the pitted areas of the frame and cylinder. Bore is turning dark with strong rifling. Loading lever operates perfectly and rests tight against the barrel. Original bronze cone front sight is present. Accessories are excellent. A truly unique, Civil War Era specimen.

(A) REMINGTON BEALS CARTRIDGE REVOLVER PRESENTED BY COL. WILLIAM GREENE.

Lot # 1175 (Sale Order: 173 of 460)      

Remington "Beal's" Navy Model six shot revolver made by E. Remington and Sons Ilion, New York between 1860 and 1862. Gun has been "Nickel Plated" and converted to .38 Rimfire at one point in time in this pistol's lifetime. Gun is marked on left flat of octagon barrel "Presented to Capt. Lewis from Col. Greene" and right barrel flat is marked "Cananea Mex. 1906". "Col. Greene" is most likely William Cornell Greene who was a famous businessman who discovered a rich copper deposit in Cananea, Mexico in the late 1800's. "Capt. Lewis" was probably "C.B. Lewis" who was in charge of handling matters at the Cananea Mine in 1906 when there was a huge miners strike. The gun has fame as the possible gun that Greene used to kill James Burnett in 1897 for causing the drowning death of his daughter and friend. Greene shot down James Burnett in Tombstone, Arizona and was never convicted. A book written by "C.L. Sonnichsen" called "Colonel Greene and the Copper Skyrocket" describes Green's gun and damage to it which exists on it today. An interesting piece for the Western collector or Tombstone history. Comes with copy of Sonnichsen book. CONDITION: 80% reapplied Nickel finish with large flake missing from cylinder with good bore and weak mechanics. Grips have damage at butt as described in book. DLM Barrel Length: 7 - 1/4" Caliber/Bore: .38 FFL Status: Antique Manufacturer: Remington Model: Beals Paperwork: Book Serial Number: 11946
Remington "Beal's" Navy Model six shot revolver made by E. Remington and Sons Ilion, New York between 1860 and 1862. Gun has been "Nickel Plated" and converted to .38 Rim...morefire at one point in time in this pistol's lifetime. Gun is marked on left flat of octagon barrel "Presented to Capt. Lewis from Col. Greene" and right barrel flat is marked "Cananea Mex. 1906". "Col. Greene" is most likely William Cornell Greene who was a famous businessman who discovered a rich copper deposit in Cananea, Mexico in the late 1800's. "Capt. Lewis" was probably "C.B. Lewis" who was in charge of handling matters at the Cananea Mine in 1906 when there was a huge miners strike. The gun has fame as the possible gun that Greene used to kill James Burnett in 1897 for causing the drowning death of his daughter and friend. Greene shot down James Burnett in Tombstone, Arizona and was never convicted. A book written by "C.L. Sonnichsen" called "Colonel Greene and the Copper Skyrocket" describes Green's gun and damage to it which exists on it today. An interesting piece for the Western collector or Tombstone history. Comes with copy of Sonnichsen book. CONDITION: 80% reapplied Nickel finish with large flake missing from cylinder with good bore and weak mechanics. Grips have damage at butt as described in book.
