early Ithaca model 37 trap?

Ischia

I've found one in a local pawn shop. Model 37 12 guage trap,30" solid rib,Ithaca recoil pad,deluxe wood,fleur-de-lis checkering, (early style per Blue Book). All original, around 85% condition. I haven't seen any of these on GB and was wondering if $350 out the door is fair? or dicker a bit?

Thanks,

I like those old Ithacas. I'd probably jump on it, too, for that price. Any idea when it was made?

I didn't check the #. I'm hoping any mod 37 collectors here could give an idea as to vintage from what I saw. Blue Book notes early Fleur-de-lis checkering. Gun has honest wear that says years of use,but its clean and cared for. I would guess late 30's to pre WWII.

Thanks,

If you do not want I will take it. Give me the serial nimber I will let you know when it was made.

This might help, but would be better if you had the serial #: http://forums.gunbroker.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=226627&SearchTerms=ithaca
