To my eyes that looks like right as rain second generation B-Grade wood, and an original leather-faced Silvers, or Silvers type, pad. If the barrels are right and everything mechanical is fine that is easily a $3500 gun.
If you have the serial number, you can get a letter on it from the Savage historian, John Callahan --
John T. Callahan
Arms Historian
P.O. Box 82
Southampton, MA 01073
The fee is $40, send John a check and the serial number.
Or, if you are a dues paying member of the A.H. Fox Collectors Association, Inc., $30 per year, you get one free card look up (graded guns only, we don't have Sterlingworth cards) per year and additional look ups are $25. Make your request on the members forum and a jpeg of the card is usually emailed within 24 hours.
