Manufactured in the 1880s. Dual bead sights on the matte rib marked "ITHACA GUN CO. ITHACA. NY. FINE DAMASCUS STEEL", 2 3/4 inch chambers, single extractor, and cylinder chokes. The receiver features hunting dog scenes on the sides, a snipe on the underside, and a retriever on the trigger guard. The balance is filled with fine, intricate scroll work with relief chiseled fleur-de-lis designs on the fences. With dual triggers and tang mounted safety. Checkered splinter forearm with engraved fittings and ebony tip insert, and pistol grip stock with fleur-de-lis carved border accents, scalloped hard rubber grips cap, blank initial shield, and checkered Ithaca hard rubber buttplate.

Fine. The barrels have an overall mottled bray patina with areas of spotting, some mild pitting, and small dings throughout. The receiver has an overall uniform dark gray patina with well-defined, detailed engraving and handling marks. The wood is fine as professionally repaired with faint cracks running along either side of the upper tang, freshened checkering, and re-oiled finish. Mechanically very good.
