Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
This is a very nice example of one of the small revolvers made by Whitneyville Armory, located in Whitneyville Connecticut. This area, today near Hamden Connecticut, was so named due to its association with the famous Eli Whitney, the inventor of the Cotton Gin. Whitney also manufactured firearms, such as Springfield Muskets, and his son, also named Eli Whitney, followed in his footsteps. The factory was expanded, and the area became known as "Whitneyville", making firearms throughout the 19th century. Eventually, after several consolidations, the factory became "Whitneyville Armory."
This is a lovely 7 shot .22cal rimfire pistol, made for self protection, and would easily fit in a coat pocket. Whitneyville Armory termed this their No. 1 model, originally produced with a nickel plated brass frame and blued steel barrel and other parts.
As you can see in the many high resolution photos, this revolver is in great condition showing what we believe to be less than average evidence of use and handling for its age.
