how old is my Colt?

I just purchased a nice Colt Police Positive in a .32 S&W Long

Its serial number is 136674

I would like to know when is was made

My book shows late 1916. Assuming it's a Police Pos. .32, and not a PPS. But IIRC, the only .32's in the special were .32-20's.

If it is a Police Positive, then the year of manufacture should be 1917.
