Also accompanied by an 8.5 x 11 cardstock photo of Robertson on the set of Tales of Wells Fargo, the gun holstered at his side, signed in black felt tip, "From my collection, Good luck always, Dale Robertson, Colt 164326," and a notarized letter from a collector, explaining: "In October 2001 I was contacted by a friend of mine that Dale Robertson, former movie and TV star, wanted to sell the Colt Single Action #164326 that he had used on his series 'Tales of Wells Fargo'...The picture of Robertson seated in a director's chair, clearly shows the gun in his 'left handed holster.'"
This transfers as a modern firearm.
