Ithaca purchased the Lefever line in 1915 (if I remember correctly). And continued making the side plate guns of Dan Lefever's last design. That line was discontinued and then the Lefever Nitro Special was introduced in 1923. It was an Ithaca designed gun that only was marked with the Lefever name. The A grade line of Lefevers were introduced along side the Nitro Specials in the mid. 1930s and made until WW2.
There were also Single Barreled guns made with the Lefever name on them.

The Lefever line was very basic in design and do not even share many similarities between other Ithaca models. They bolt only through the rib extension with the top lever.
