OK, thanks. The back sides of the grips are also of interest, as I think someone already said. If they're original Bakelite, they'd be more valuable than plastic ones.

This business of obscuring serial numbers is basically a waste of time. Some folks have occasionally started out here doing the same, but I've never heard of a rationale that would justify it, or a risk or liability the practice would reasonably/potentially mitigate. You'll notice that among all the other posts on this or any other forum that it simply isn't practiced.
