Eastern Arms was a trade name sold by Sears Roebuck. It may have been made by any one of several manufacturers. If you take it to a good gunsmith, he may recognize it as a particular Iver Johnson or H&R model and find parts for it. He can probably make a spring, and the trigger guard may be repairable if he cannot find a replacement.

When was my 38 Meriden revolver Eastern Arms made?
No sn data in the public domain. Meriden Firearms Company was in operation from 1905 to 1918.
What is the value of a eastern arms 38 revolver?
Eastern Arms was a Sears Roebuck trade name and the only reference I find listing a .38 revolver says they were made by Meriden Arms, which was a Sears subsidiary and in business only from c. 1905-1915. If your gun has grips marked Forhand Arms, I'd bet that the whole gun was made by that company and marked with the Sears name. That would agree with your estimate of the age as the Forehand name was used from 1890 to 1902. The only top-break .38 Revolver I find listed is the "Perfection Automatic" but my references disagree on the exact dates of production. The Standard Catalog of Firearms says 1898-1902 while The 1983 Official Price Guide says they were all made before 1899. The Standard Catalog suggests a value of $150 in NRA Very Good condition. I don't think the Eastern name would affect the value either way.
