Brophy's book on Marlin Firearms history would be the place to start. I own a model 995, have a copy of the manual.
The serial number plus the book on Marlin Firearms History by Brophy.

The two old model Marlins in 38-55 were the 1881 & 1893. They recently re-introduced the 38-55 in a Marlin for cowboy action shooting. Try gunbroker.com for pictures.
