Stan, the s/n is 4574xx. Slow sales during the Great Depression and with Ithaca doing serials in "blocks" for the special Vent Rib high top frames, I'm thinking she left the factory much later than might be indicated just by the serial number. She doesn't have cocking indicator pins and the Trap beavertail f/e is the newer "long style". Possibly shipment in the mid to late 1930's. My Cody membership has expired and if I renew it I'll get an Ithaca records readout.
