The Imperial was manufactured by Baker Gun and Forging Company, 1896-1919. (You'll have to hold it a little closer to the screen so I can see what gauge it is.)
$25-50.00
to the right person about 1000 .
How much is a Marlin 12 gauge pump shotgun with a Pat D Nov 6 1894 May 12 1896 June 2 1896 on barrel with serial #80996 is worth.
I bought the same shotgun, serial number in the 91000s, for 50 dollars. Ones in good condition can go for 80 dollars. Unless, it is in perfect condition, 80 dollars is the max value.
Interesting shotgun. The patent date is the giveaway. The shotgun was actually made by the Crescent Firearms Company which was the largest shotgun manufacturer in the US at the time. It was absorbed by HD Folsom, a huge firearm importer/distributor, and continued making shotguns for that firm under many different brand names until Folsom was absorbed by Stevens c.1930. I do not know what hardware store or mail-order store used the GET THERE brand name. Vorisek's "Shotgun Markings" attributes that patent date to WH Davenport. His entry for GET THERE indicates "unknown manufacturer" so I guess this date was not marked on the example he examined. Unfortunately, Joe passed away on Christmas Day, 2005, and I do not know what will happen to his documentation.
It all depends on the condition of the gun. What is original and what has been repaired. Perfect condition $300.00 is what I would pay.
You have a Marlin model 1896 slide action shotgun, however, it is a Blackpowder shotgun and you will need brass hulls.
