I'm looking for some help identifying an old Ithaca SxS. From the information I can find, I don't know if its a "Flues" model, A "New Industry Double" or something else.

The gun is 12ga, double triggers, splinter forend, pistol grip (semi pistol grip??) stock. It has "fluid steel" barrels (not damascuse or twist), and was purchased new in 1909.

There is a bird dog (pointer??) engraved on the sides of the action.

The serial number is #190xxx

any information would be helpful.

Thanks!
