Extraordinary Bruce. Thanks for sharing. Any guess regarding who engraved all of that lovely scroll? The trigger guard is a work of art in itself!

This gun has some of the tightest scroll a person is likely to find on a Parker.

The wide comb nose was an option.

As always Bruce ,Thank You for posting photos of an Absolutely Beautiful gun which most of the members on our forum would never have a chance to see otherwise ! I really like how the Case Colors bring out the Fine Scroll , the Dog Engraving etc. is never as sharp as this ,at least not on the guns of High Condition that I have been fortunate enough to see !

To paraphrase Yogi Berra, you can observe a lot by just looking.

This is the prettiest Parker I've ever seen! Such beautiful engraving, wood, and style. Great photos too. Thanks for sharing! Someone should do a pictorial book of Parkers best guns with outstanding photos for all of us less fortunate to admire........Jerry
