The one thing I can't see in any of the 50 pictures of the gun is the choke markings near the front of the barrel flats. According to the serial number chronology in the Second Edition of Walter's book the gun is of 1911 vintage.



Back in those days, the Ithaca Field Grade with "Smokeless Powder Steel" barrels had a list price of $30 with an actual net selling price of $19.50 while the No. 1 with Twist barrels like this gun had a list price of $40 with an actual net selling price of $25.
