Here is what I found in Blue Book:
Model 1890 Second Model Takedown Frame
- color case hardened receiver, takedown feature was added in 1892 after over 15,000 solid frames had been made, approx. ser. no. range 15,500-326,000. Mfg. 1892-1907.

Model 1890 Takedown w/ Blue Finish
- most commonly encountered Model 1890, post-1901 manufacture.

Add 50% for .22 LR cal. (mfg circa 1919-1932, starting at ser. no. approx. 610,000).
.22 LR cal. accounted for approx. 10% of the total production on this model.
Deluxe model will bring premiums over values listed. There were also a limited amount of guns mfg. with stainless steel barrels which will add to values of post-1901 mfg.
The Model 1890 was Winchester's first slide action repeating rifle. It replaced the Model 1873 .22 cal. It was an excellent and inexpensive .22 rifle that rapidly became the universal firearm used in shooting galleries. Even though production reached approx. 849,000 units, most guns were heavily used and specimens existing today in 98%+ condition are rare. Check carefully for rebarreling (notice proofmarks on barrel).
Hope this helps.
