Ithaca 3E short 10

The other discussions about short tens and other makes of nice guns prompts me to show this 3E Flues made in 1913. It weighs 9lb 11.5oz, 30” barrels, many of the pre-WW1 Ithacas had good workmanship and very good engraving like this one. Not your typical quail gun though.

I really like those chain Damascus barrels on that Ithaca. What is the engraving of on the floor plate? Nice gun. Thanks for sharing.

Wonderful Gun Jim! Joseph Loy engraved?

Walter Snyder thinks probably Edward Laytham

Very nice gun, I love the short 10's. I would have that gap between between the wood and the receiver on the left side checked out. Could be some internal cracking and if not fixed could become external.
