I agree. But then we don't know anything about Johnny's shooting habits. The thingie looks a bit crappy. It will probably be bids all about the certificate.

A blued frame on a '51 sure alters the look.  To my eye someone really messed up doing that.

The frame also doesn't show as much corrosion as the rest of it either. It's like the frame was extensively reworked or came from a different gun altogether.

The auction catalogue is now available. Pages 2 & 3 are maybe of most interest.

Auction is over. The Cash Colt went for $2,200,-. That's one expensive autograph.
