Ithaca 37 info

Hi. I own two Ithaca pump guns (model 37's) and neither of them have a model number on them and neither of them say Featherlight on them. Just curious, when did Ithaca start stamping Featherlight on their pump guns and was there a year they started designating (marking) the model on the gun? They're both matching numbers guns made in the 40's... thanks for the info! Randy

They have the dates with serial numbers from 1937, no production for 43-45.

EDIT: The Featherlight designation has the little circle with the "R" in it, so apparently sometime between 1948 and 1952, Ithaca registered Featherlight as a trademark even though they used Featherlight in their advertising before that.
