I would dearly love to find out more about this gun. Who was S.D. McGraw? I tried Googleing the name but came up with very little. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Best Regards, George
Here's a bit from Google

CHICAGO STOCK EXCHANGE MEMBERS

Name: S.D. McGraw
Admitted: February 19, 1901
Firm: Allen, McGraw and Co.
Members of Firm: R.H. Allen S.D. McGraw
Office: 20 Broad Street, New York

SOURCE

New York Stock Exchange Cross Streets:
Wall Street between Broad and New Streets

It's a start. Who knows, but we do have an S.D. McGraw from New York who is a member of the Chicago Stock Exchange with a New York Office not too far from the NYSE at an appropriate time period.

Cheers,
Jack
