Tight, quite lovely first edition of this slim study of "U.S. Model 1847," the Army's first repeating pistol. Title page colophon notes this as #0445 (of unspecified limitation) and printed dedication page that follows has been signed boldly in full by Whittington in black ballpoint. Surprisingly scarce.
