Default Paper weights

Did Parker make glass paper weights? I either just got the steal of the century or snookered. Thanks all, Jerry Andrews

There were a variety of Parker collectibles made in the 1980's during the resurgence with the Parker Reproductions. Patches, signs, catalogs, caps, knives, paperweights and the like including some poured glass over paper base paperweights. The Double Gun Journal offered poured glass paperweights over trade cards from most of the classic American and British makers . Dan Cote probably has some remaining.

I am not aware of any originals from Parker Bros but every once in a while something unknown appears. At the least , most are nice collectibles.

A person wanting to know what is original in Parker memorabilia can look at that section in The Parker Story , the necessary reference for collectors.

there is a similar discussion going on in the Fox collector site for an AH Fox paperweight

the consensus seems to that Galazans was or is selling glass paperweights with a vintage look to them
