The 8mm Lebel was a fairly common cartridge on the European market both before and after WWI, so Spanish revolvers in that caliber were probably fairly common. But the big market for Spain in the post-war period was the U.S. The 8mm Lebel was never common here, but is close enough to the .32-20 that the makers just modified the guns to the latter caliber for export to the US and South America.
I do note that the makers of that revolver put their names on it, something most of the Spanish makers "forgot" to do.
