An Early 1900 American Eagle

Dwight,
A most excellent effort on the Early AE. I was particularly interested in your explaination of the Swiss Cross on the bbl. I have been curious about these pistols since I acquired mine. Your efforts have answered many of my questions. Thanks so much for your fine article. BTW, mine is S/N 2146. It matches your description to the letter except for one facet. There is no "flaming bomb" on the side-plate. The side plate is numbered to and appears original to the gun, just no "bomb".
Not quite in the condition of yours, I would be happy to share photos if you are interested.

Yr. Humb. Svt.

Ronnie
