Featured in this lot we have an Iver Johnson safety hammerless bicycle revolver chambered in .38 caliber. This revolver was manufactured by Iver Johnson Arms Inc. in the early 1900's. The revolver displays a 2" long round barrel, five shot cylinder, hard rubber grips, top break action, and double action trigger.
