OK, I'll walk you through it.
On our main web page
www.parkerguns.org click on the "Parker Pages" link in the list of links on the left. The page that comes to view has a section
Past Parker Pages Index:, click as directed.
The page that comes to view is the index. It lists each article published with its author; grouped in the year it was published.
If you are interested in finding a specific article or author, you can search the index in your web browser. To search, enter a "ctrl" and an "f" key simultaneously. Somewhere on your web browser a empty text box will appear; the text box location depends on which browser you are using. Enter what you want to search for into that empty text box and any matching text found will be highlighted for you to easily locate .
With this information you can go to your stash of Parker Pages and find what you are looking for, or you can ask a friend that might have the issue you need for a quick read.
FYI - some background information on how this index came to be. Several years ago the PGCA had a project underway to digitize all the Parker Pages and use that to create a CD to be sold. The project was nearing completion when one of the contributing authors pointed out that his submission was submitted with a once use copyright and the PGCA was about to violate his copyright. So, to avoid legal problems the project was scrapped. Trying to salvage something from the work, the index that was to be used on the CD to find and display any article was changed to the index you see here on our web page. It's not what had been hoped for but ....
I hope this helps.
