To the right person it may be a gem. Ithaca-Baker doubles are not easy to come by, especially if in shooting condition. Even so the only interest is to a devout Ithaca Gun Co. collector and then grade and condition mean more than rarity. The few of them that remain usually keeps them from being shot. Ithaca models generally show variation in design in the first 100 or so guns, so the different features are of interest to those following the evolution of Ithaca guns. Even then there doesn't seem to be a big following of interest.
I do collect Ithaca doubles and do have some interest. Mostly as a student of early American SxS design. You can PM me if want to discuss this more in-depth.
