lever .22 mag marlin

any body seen a model 57 marlin before? my boss brought a rifle to work & when he opened the case i said "oh a 99 savage" but when he turned it over i saw a small bolt opening in the receiver so no 99. it is a short throw lever gun with close to a 24" or so barrel. anybody have one of these? his dad left a bunch of rifles when he passed & boss don't know much about them. thanks

That short throw lever is a highly desireable item in some circles.
See what he'll take for it.
