Meriden factory original.
Not the best pictures,,kind of grainy (if that's the term),,but that's what you got on a Meriden and a lot of other guns of that period.
Not too bad considering the cabbage patch engraving patterns on some of the other name brand guns of the time.

Wm Gough did engrave some of their highest grades. I had one at one time that's now pictured on one of the Meriden F/A sites.
