The engraving is wonderful... Runge?

...and the mullered borders are perfection as well.

If you use the Search function and enter Odis Odom (his name is universally misspelled; it it spelled Odis, not Otis), you will pull up a couple of threads. The 8-1-2016 "Clark Gable and Carole Lombard Hunting" thread's last page contains 2 posts I made regarding Odis' back story, so to speak, and the last post on the thread is mine, answering Jim Thynne's queries as to the disposition of actor Robert Stack's Parker Guns.

Milton asked about upgrades in configurations that are unheard of or very rare in an original Parker. Of course, A-1 Special and AAHE .410s are in that category. Shelley Gitman had a SAA single upgrade, Runge engraved. The Parker Story says only one original was made. I know of only two SAA upgrades and I am lucky enough to own Shelley's SAA.
