I have a 12 GA Ithaca and I belive it to be a 1947 hear is the information I have

Ithaca model 37, pat no, 1849982, full choke, serial number 155581, the barrel has a 4 with a line out to the side and the serial number is under that

waterfowl engraving,ribbed pump, barrel is 29 1/2" long

Hears my question do I have the date right? as it is 1947

Why can I not find the 12 GA on the web what I do find is very little to nothing?

Is this a possible specail order during that time?

Thanks for any and all information
