Well ,while not 90+ condition.... you can add one more mine is a 30 inch 12 bore,serial#84672,shipped June 6 ,1896 to Buhl &Son`s in Detroit.

It made it`s way from there somehow ,to I believe Northern Europe where it was picked up by a bulk firearm`s dealer here in Canada....I purchased it a couple year`s ago for the princely sum of less than $200.00 Can.

I love the old girl!!!
