    The Rossi Princess was a Zinc diecast/potmetal frame .22 revolver that was imported for a very short time during the late 60's. They were a knock off of the old S & W LadySmiths that were sold during the early part of the 20th Century. If this Model 526 your inquiring about has a steel frame it's not the Rossi Princess.

    EDIT #1, Photo of a Rossi Princess I got off the net. Notice the Zinc diecast construction and how the flutes on the cylinder are machined. Both are very distinctive.

    Yep, that's the one. I guess I'm a new owner of a "princess" with a presentation box.
