Picked these up recently as I love period taken pictures like these!
Most of these are dated 10/25/63 and came from a single shoot. These were the some of the first Colt archived pictures that were numbered for their marketing and engineering. Neat to see a whole rack of what im assuming is 602’s but may be 601’s. They have the modified 3 prong but other 601 features. Too far to see the serial numbers. You can read one seriel number in another picture in the 10,000 range so that would be 601  Attached File Attached File Attached File Attached File Attached File |
