Looking for a source of quality reprints of this brochure. Its not on Cornell Publications list and I haven't seen it as a reprint, but maybe I missed it.

Apparently the Small Bore Shotguns brochure has never been reprinted.  Guess I'll look for an original. Thanks for looking.

Bruce,

Dan Cote is in the process of printing a new (old) brochure but I am not sure if this is the one he told me it was, I will ask him again.

The Small Bore Shotguns brochure contains a lot of load information  for Parker gauges 12-28 and is interesting for their recommended loads. I think it is the only original source for that information, some of which is contained in TPS.  It contains recommendations for when a 20ga and a 28ga can be used appropriately.

I have a friend photocopying his brochure for me, but I would like to find a nice reproduction or original. Cote does fine work and I will look for it in the DGJ.

Kevin, is there anything significant about the clown catalog other than the amusing cover?  I've never seen one except the cover in TPS and I don't know what's inside.

Do you have one to reproduce?   Put me down for one if you do.

One of our life members reproduced and marketed the Small Bore booklet in 1973.  He may have a few still floating around.

Yes, the Small Bore Booklet was reproduced.  It was not mentioned in The Parker Story in the chapter discussing reproduction Parker paper.
