Can anyone identify the logo (WAD & Co, or ADW & Co etc. ??) on this CS Shattuck .32 cal pocket revolver. Interesting grips: The two US Presidents that had been assasinated up until that time (1879). That's Garfield on the left grip, Lincoln is on the right. Hope you can solve the mystery. Thanks JB

There are quite a few entries in Google for the "dead presidents" revolver. Garfield 1881, Lincoln 1865, the only ones at that time. Also a lengthy article from the Massachusetts Historical society on the history of Shattuck. Could find no reference to the logo. Someone is actually selling new replicas of the grips online.
