The #2212 Jupiter first showed up in Shakespeare's 1930 catalog. It only sold for a couple years, so it is a rather desirable model for many collectors. I notice the tail plate on yours has been bent at some point, which really affects value. Condition is the most important factor in just about any area of collecting. Good luck.
