Drew, I can find no information that 117432 was owned by Annie or purchased by Frank Butler. If you could point me to your source I would appriciate it. I own the next sequential BHE made after 117432 and would like to know if Butler had any involvement with my gun. Thanks!

Drew: Is that the SN of the gun coming to Heritage Auctions? On the flyer I received from them no SN was listed, but looking on Heritage's web site I pulled up the auction scheduled for June 10th. Although no descriptions are there yet they did have some pictures. The only Parker that's showing there is SN 48767 which the book has as a D3 12 gauge capped pistol grip no extras w/ 30 inch barrels. It could be the one on the flyer that they sent me although the grade looks higher than a D3.

Best Regards, George

I looked in the catalog, George. It looks like a Grade 3. How it connects to Annie Oakley, I don't know. Is it one of the Oakley-Butler guns listed in The Parker Story? I haven't looked yet. What is the story about the "Old West Show and Auction" Annie Oakley gun that is to be sold June 22-24? That seems to be a GH grade gun in high condition. My Annie Oakley gun has absolutely no provenance and is probably worth about $150.

I don't know about that one Bill. The one at Heritage Auction is scheduled for June 10th. and is called "Wild West Signature Auction" and all the lots are to have descended from Annie & Frank's family that were kept in some old steamer trunks.

Best Regards, George

The Marlin rifles are very high condition also. If they can be traced to Annie Oakley, they will sell for very big money. The Parker is a screamer also.

The description of the Dr. Dave Rozier gun in the Julia catalog states that Frank Butler ordered it, but, strangely, it is not listed in the Oakley-Butler guns in The Parker Story. I guess we would have to spring for a $40 letter. The Heritage Auction gun is listed in The Parker Story as a Frank Butler gun.
