Thanks for the post, John.

An important point here is that we receive pictures/scans ONLY of KNOWN AUTHENTIC Black Widow grips.

As a second part of the study, it might be useful to look at known, fake, Bakelite, black grips. For now let's stick with known authentic samples, as we are looking for common elements in the real grips.

If you are willing/able to help, please contact me at: lugesm@charter.net

Thanks,
Luke
