While going through some old reference materials of mine, I ran across the attached article from an old Arms Gazette magazine that was a reprint of the brochure included with the Schneider and Glassick Commemorative revolvers made by High Standard.

Enjoy.

Fingers,
Were the High Standard guns steel or brass framed?

High standard made four different commemoratives.  The Leech and Rigdon - steel frame, round barrel; Griswold and Gunnison - brass frame, round barrel; Bicentennial model - a Leech and Rigdon with nickel plated frame and engraving; and the Schneider and Glassick that the article is about - brass frame, octagonal barrel.  The Bicentennial could be had in a pine case with powder flask & silver dollar sized medalion; or in a leatherette case with Bicentennial belt buckle.  The G&G came as just the revolver or in a pine presentation case with a belt plate depicting the GA state seal.  The L&R came as just the revolver, or in a commemorative gun case with a Civil War belt buckle replica.  The S&G only came in a presentation case with a reproduction of the D guard Bowie.
