Default Invincible - Grade 9

Did Parker Bros. ever publish any sales brochures for the Invincible?

It is pictured and described in the 1926 through 1930 catalogs, but it is not included in the price list. I am not sure how we know the price ($1250?) asked for it. Maybe I missed it in the catalog. In later years, internal Remington memos priced the Invincible at $1300 and later, $1400?, but none were made in this era, as far as we know.

Gary Herman once offered the Invincible 16 gauge for sale in a nice brochure, but his other offerings were included.

The $1250 price was in magazine ads.

I posted this as you posted the above..... THANKS! Anybody have any SBT paper to share?

If you look at the Parker Grades web page you will see a Parker ad for each grade of gun, which, when you click on it expands so you can read their sales advertisement. I am missing that for the Invincible and all the Single Barrel Trap grades.

If anyone has a copy of Parker advertisements for any of these guns and would be so kind to send me a scan of it, I will add them to the Parker Grades web page. With your help, I think it would enhance the site.

Eric,
Always glad to share. Some with larger collections don't!
