I did request a research letter which is en route, but it might be one with no records. We shall see. I did see some used Jostams of this type on Ebay but they looked as used as this one. I think I will just take the sage advice of the people who were good enough to reply to my query and leave it as is. It has certainly been my MO with my military rifles and handguns--some people can't resist refinishing and generally messing with patina when really as long as something isn't actually broken, it shouldn't be touched.
