There were 3 models. The 1907, the 1915, and the 1917. The 1907 has rectangular grips, the 1915 has the grip safety, the 1917 has trapezoidal grips.
If you can get a serial number range, we can tell you which style and variation it is. Also you'll need to know if it's a 32ACP, or 380.
Let's see if I can link in a random internet pic of all 3..
