The firm of Victor Sarasqueta was founded in 1883 and received a Royal Warrant as a purveyor to the King of Spain in 1902. The firm concentrated primarily on side by side double shotguns of British design. Boxlock guns of Anson & Deely pattern and sidelock guns of Holland & Holland pattern were produced. Don Victor's firm also built a sidelock action over & under shotgun which appears similar to the British Woodward action.
The company also produced SxS double rifles in African calibers for dangerous game. A single barrel sidelock action trapgun was offered during the 1950's. Following World War 2, many Eibar based gunmakers, including Victor Sarasqueta, engaged in volume production of guns which were built to a price required by North American importers and major sporting goods retailers. Throughout its history, the firm continued to produce higher quality bespoke guns according to a client's personal specifications for weight, stock dimensions, barrel length, choke, rib type, etc. The top of the line Models 12E and 206E featured elaborate deep chisled engraving on the frame and breech end of the barrels. Other models featured traditional Churchill, Holland or Purdey engraving patterns. The 1970's and 80's saw a major downturn in business for Spanish gunmakers.

A number of models were discontinued and the production range was reduced to two boxlock models and eight sidelock shotgun and three sidelock double rifle models. In the mid-1980's, the firm became part of the ill-fated Diarm group which tried to consolidate several Spanish gunmaking firms into one company. The Diarm firm closed their doors in the late 1980's ending a chapter in Spanish gunmaking. The Victor Sarasqueta firm should not be confused with the firms of J.J. Sarasqueta or Felix Sarasqueta, both of which survived the 1980's.
Victor and Knickerbocker were Crescent-Davis (circa 1888 to about 1940) 'utility' guns manufactured for various hardware stores, retail outlets, and H & D Folsom Sporting Goods of New York City. Serial numbers don't help much on these - no one has ever tried to determine the method Crescent used to assign them or research original records (probably none exist) - but it would have been made somewhere between 1893 and 1932.
