I had this one set back for me and picked it up today. It's a 1951 Marlin 336A Deluxe in .32 Special. It is in very nice shape with the dark black walnut stock common to the era. The stock checkering is still in nice shape.
I have about $600.00 into this one.....Not bad, just a bit below average. They go for around $750.00 in like condition/caliber.
It was set-up with a god awful see-through scope mount with a 70s vintage Charles Daley 3 X 9 X 40 scope.
I replaced that set-up with an late 60s vintage Lyman All-American 4X scope. It came with a Marlin embossed sling.
They did not come that year with the receiver drilled and tapped so I made lemonade with the lemons handed me. I was lucky as I had a set of 2-piece Redfield bases and rings that I used.
