Default Table cloth

Did the Parker Gun Collectors Association ever offer a Table Cloth with the Parker logo(patch) for sale? I am looking for one that fits the standard 8 foot table at gun shows. I figured the Association might have offered a Table cloth through the years when members were displaying their Parkers at different events. I plan on setting up a table of small bore Parkers at the O.G.C.A annual display show one of these days and thought a Parker Table cloth would add a nice touch to the exhibit. I probably will have to make my own as I want either Hunter green or Burgundy cloth.

The PGCA had a dozen or so special table cloths made for special events and they were VERY expensive but never offered them for sale, and I’ve never heard any rumblings about having some less expensive ones made for sale.

John this is the style of table cloth used by the PGCA, as Dean stated I do not recall them ever being offered for sale. If and when you get ready to display at the OGCA get hold of me if you like and I will see what I can do about getting you one to use at the show. The OGCA has a fabulous display show typically, good luck if you do enter.

This is what I was looking for with the Burgundy top and the Parker Logo with the gun and woodcock on the front. When I get ready to display-I might take you up on the offer. Thanks!

Wilmington where the show is would be about 90 miles for me so I may just come check out your display. I did attend the last show about 2 weeks ago and unfortunately attendance by spectators and exhibitors was down IMO. Also saw several empty tables which is not the norm for this show.

I was there also! January is probably one of the worst shows. I was lucky to get there myself as we got hit with 8 inches of snow in Maryland the night before I left. I was hoping to display this year at the Display show but I still need a couple of guns. I want to have 6 guns(all small bores) on one table. I have 2-20 gauges-a 28 ga. and a 410. I would like to add another 28 ga. and 410 and have two of each. I figure anything over 6 guns is to many for one table. If you go to the March show stop by my table (Row 0) and chat.

What are the dates of that March show, John? The OGCA show venue is very close to my family in Columbus, and on my way on my frequent trips to our old homeplace in NE OH. I am assuming it is still at the conference center right off I-71 across from the big R&L Carrier terminal? I'd love to make a trip by there this year.

Dave the March show is scheduled for the 12th & 13th. Glad to see that you are present on the forum again after the storms that ravaged KY.

After taking a direct hit from an EF3 tornado, it's a pleasure to be present anywhere, Randy!!



See you in Wilmington!

Dave
