Wooden HK Grip Question...

When I owned it. It is a very early 1900 American Eagle that is one of the first run examples having a Swiss proofed barrel. In fact it is the highest serial number I have encountered still having the Swiss proof. It is the one I used to bracket the serial number range for Swiss proofed barrel 1900 AEs at approximately 2000 to 2200. Haven't found or heard of any outside that range. Except for the grip, it is in pretty good shape. I picked it up reasonably and used it later in a trade. I didn't feel too badly about losing it since I have an earlier one in better condition.
