A pair of lovely old ladies!
This pair of Navy Colts were in the same shipment to the Brooklyn Navy Yard on 5 November, 1912. They seemed to have survived the years quite well to say the least!
The top one is #10530 and the bottom one is #10705

John, what a beautiful pair indeed! You're very lucky to have these "Ladies" in your life--thanks for the photos.

I can only think of one place nice than the HOLBROOK Retirement home for these "ladies"... and that would be my house
