Ed; They start with A - exactly like #31 in the proofs list. I also believe it is a reworked Imperial - the serial number leaves little doubt. So, does that mean the '1920' is indeed a property mark? If it's an Imperial, that would be 1918 or before, ja? Now I'm thinking police reworked 1914. Other features: reblued, but looks like rust blue to me; stock lug; no extra safeties or frame cut; typical DWM machining marks in frame 'ears'; small parts were strawed at one time; no other proofs except an Imperial eagle on the barrel, visible in the chamber date photo.
