Originally sold as a set of 4 World War I Commemorative 1911s with matching serial numbers. Collectors with the full set were offered 2 additional World War II Commemorative guns when they were later issued by Colt. This set includes all 6 pistols each numbered "6568" followed by their individual model suffix. The WWI guns commemorate the battles of Belleau Wood, Meuse-Argonne, The 2nd Battle of the Marne, and Chateau Thierry, each with commemorative engraving, lustrous high polish blue finish, and grips inset with commemorative medallions. Each is housed in their correct display case. This set also includes both of the brilliantly nickel plated, commemoratively engraved European and Pacific Theatre 1911A1 pistols. These pistols are also housed in their correct hinged lid presentation style display cases. CONDITION: Excellent. Virtually all of the factory finishes are retained with some scattered handling marks. Some residue and staining is present on the right grips of the WWI guns from contact with the pads which they originally rested on in their cases. The pads have largely disintegrated with some losses to the paper background of a few cases where they were removed, still displaying well with the guns in place. Cases otherwise have some expected wear and separation. A handsome and desirable set not often seen complete.
