Help Please: Estate Revolver and Ammo Box/Ammo

Any info is appreciated: A friend is the executor for an estate and found this old revolver and the ammo pictured here. I know the revolver is a Harrington & Richardson Automatic Ejecting DA Revolver, 4 inch barrel, 32 S&W. There is some rust and I know it's worth $200 at most (tell me if I'm wrong), but I believe the revolver is fully functional. The serial number is 131719 and I'd like to date it.

The cartridges are 32 S&W "short", from the Robin Hood Ammunition Company in Vermont. I know that the company was absorbed by Remington in 1916, so the ammo is at least that old. Anyone have any idea what the cartridges and box are worth? I'm guessing the box is pretty close to full, but I didn't count the cartridges.

I think both estimates are on the high side... I've bought several of those revolvers starting at $75.00 on Gun Broker... it's blued rather than nickel, ( lower production ) from the cosmetic condition in the picture... I'd say $150 on the high side

the cartridges are in less than pristine shape, & condition is everything to the collector... I'd say $25 -$30 high side for the box of cartridges
