There was no Victor Ejector gun company. Your gun is known as a "Trade Brand Name" shotgun. A "Trade Brand Name" shotgun is one that was made by a major gun maker (and before 1940) for and was sold by a wholesale sporting goods dealer, a retail chain store, or an independent seller who chose the name to go on the gun. Guns with the name VICTOR EJECTOR were made by the Crescent Firearms Company of Norwich, CT (1892 to 1930+) for and were sold at wholesale by the H & D Folsom Company of New York City a large wholesale, retail, jobber and distributor of guns and sporting goods. The records of Crescent Firearms were destroyed in a scrap paper drive in 1943 during World War Two. H & D Folsom owned Crescent Fire Arms from 1893 to 1930 and what ever Folsom wanted, Crescent made. And what they wanted was a lot of inexpensive (read cheap) shotguns fast. Folsom also owned the name American Gun Co. The shotguns sold new for between $15 and $25 and hasn't appreciated much over the years. The current value will depend on the guns condition, the amount of original finish remaining on the metal and wood as well as the mechanical condition. Most of these guns in excellent condition will bring between $50 and $75.

Typical Crescent single-barrel shotgun. I have a good supply of parts. sales@countrygunsmith.net
Basically, you can't. AFAIK, no definitive history has been written on Crescent. They built utilitarin firearms, that weren't that expensive to begin with. If you had one NIB, it might be worth 150 USD.
Victor shotguns were made by crescent firearms from 1904 to 1920. You can assume your shotgun is at least 90 +/- years old.
