Default Shooting Star

Another Ithaca Classic Doubles that I had the opportunity to buy a few years ago was this "Shooting Star" version that they made. But, again it was horribly left handed. I did get one of my left hand friends in Idaho to buy it. Unlike the other guns that they manufactured, this original Ithaca gun is a 32" field that they restocked, recased and reblued. You can tell by the serial number, which is 437258 and ICD added the SS in front of the SN. The wood and the checkering is really beautiful. I have some better pictures of it, but I can't locate them right now. These are actually listed in BlueBook now.

Default Original Ithaca

Larry,

I believe this would be an original Ithaca that was produced in Ithaca?

And then modified by Ithaca Classic Doubles, or maybe that is what you had meant all along?
I believe all Ithaca Classic doubles produced were 470,000 and higher, 437,258 would mean that gun was produced in 1926 in Ithaca, NY

Stan

Yes Stan that's what I was saying. Maybe I wasn't too clear about that.
