Probably no need to crack it as Brass will tone in your shades of patina if it's been envelope stored for decades as seen below...

Boosibri that is a seriously attractive 44S, only the second rainbow toned one I've seen.
Sorry my image is so bad, but I wanted to follow your lead.

<< <i>Jeff, I suspect that 44-S is outrageous! Care to trade it for a nice camera and a couple of lights? >>
