It was manufactured by Crescent Arms Co. or since it has a serial number, it could have been manufactured by Stevens Arms Co. since they took over the Crescent Co. around 1932. As far as it's worth, they are great guns. However, as far as re-saleability, they are on the very low end. I have never owned a double of this manufacture. Price ? $ 100.00 for a good shooter. $150.00 tops for one in very good condition.
no it has a 4 digit serial # Knickerbocker came from 2 different companies. The American Gun Company, New York, stamped a five digit serial number on the barrel, forestock and stock end.
Pretty much an impossible undertaking.
The name American Gun Company was a trade mark of the Cresent Firearms Company.This company was in business from 1888-1931.The double barrel shotguns of this company were started in the year 1891.The Knickerbocker shotgun was started during the 1900,s.The knickerbocker shotguns were of a barrel length of 14 inches and chambered in 20 gauge.The barrels should be of nickel finish.A case hardened receiver,and pistol grip stock.
