I stumbled on something I thought might be of interest to the forum community. I had the good fortune of acquiring an absolutely NEW 1923 Safe & Loaded with an American Eagle crest. And when I say it is new, the best way to describe it is, just imagine being able to go back to the roaring 20's and walk into your favorite hardware store and ask the old gentelman behind the counter with the mustache and short cigar to kindly let you see that Luger in the display case. It is really that new. Well, that Luger being new prompted me to examine the Eagle to see what a "new" Eagle looked like. So I compared it to the three other Eagles I have. I am posting all four pictures here for your examination. As you can see there are subtle difference in all four. Especially interesting to note is the breast feathers on the Safe and Loaded. I am watching LSU getting beat so my typing might be a little goofy. Your comments please.
Mike
