Not a speck of old grime around the lugs on the bbls or down in the short rib. The jeweling looks almost gone on the bbl flats while everything else looks so sharply polished. Perhaps a flash photo can do that I guess.

I was never crazy about that style of Ithaca engraving, but is immediately identifiable w/them if nothing else.
Certainly quicker to cut than conventional scroll.
