grsjax , Pretty neat. Nice when you can get a original owners name. Maybe you can find out who M.W. Robinson, in New York City was!
I once had a Colt SAA lettered shipped in 1910 to a Wyeth Hardware in St Joseph Mo. to the attention of Wm. Wyeth. I called long distance info and got their number. When they answered the phone I asked to speak to him. She out me on hold............................. then Wm. Wyeth picked up. He said: "oh that was my grandfather , I'm the 3rd. We don't sell guns anymore and didn't keep records of who we sold them to". It was a 38 Colt caliber found buried in a cave floor in Madera Chihuahua Mexico.
