This beautiful factory engraved Savage Model 1899 was manufactured c. 1913 and features highly detailed circular panel scenes on the sides of the action showing running deer. The left side has a buck with mountains in the background similar to the Grade B engraving example on page 34 of "A Collector's Guide to the Savage Model 99 Rifle," and the right side shows a doe with a tree in the background. These panel scenes are surrounded by tightly curled scrollwork. There are also additional border and floral accents on the frame. The barrel has a nickel silver blade front sight with a dovetailed base, an adjustable sporting rear sight with the 1911 Savage patent marking, the two-line address and patent marking ending in "1909" on top ahead of the rear sight, "SAVAGE HI-PRESSURE STEEL/-MODEL 1899-" on the left, and "38-55" on top at the breech. The front the lever boss has a circled "H." The deluxe walnut stock and forearm have checkering with fancy border carving, "perch belly" butt profile, and a steel rifle buttplate.

Exceptionally fine with crisp engraving, 85% plus bright original high polish blue finish, a few minor patches of pitting on the barrel, 70% original case colors on the lever, a screw in place of the missing forend release button, and generally minor overall wear. The wood is very fine and has stunning figure on the butt, crisp checkering with minor spots of wear, and general light scratches and dings. Mechanically excellent.
