I picked up a few Grizzly's today and one looks to maybe be a 1962. Has leather grip, zebra wood insert on rest side, white(cream) colored limbs with black&white tips. The emblem has black background and looks pewter where the paint is chipped.
62" 45# serial #10AJ126. I don't have pics yet, but any help would be nice..Roy
Sounds like you have it right. Has dark brown decals. Sounds like a '62 to me.

Yes, dark brown decals,that makes me feel good, wishing it was a lefty, but a nice find anyway
