Bill, what does the Cody letter look like on that gun? Is the engraving and the grade of the gun mentioned in the letter? It is unusual for a factory engraved gun to have a standard (not rounded) frame, but engraved standard frame guns were used in the illustrations for the numbered engraving patterns in the catalogs. Around 1950, the rounded frame Custom guns were replaced with standard frame Deluxe Grade guns until a couple of years later when rounded frame "Custom Built" Grade guns were catalogued. Is your gun in this 1950 to 1953 range where custom configured guns had standard frames?
