Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

1903 Catalog with White Cover.
I know we are familiar with the 23 page 1903 Parker catalog with embossed pink and white cover. Kevin McCormack sold me an identical catalog, but with a plain white or cream cover with an open AH Grade on the cover. It is the same as the #26 catalog in The Parker Story except for the cover. It refers to "35 Years" of Parker production, as does the pink embossed catalog. This is the first catalog I have found for my collection that is not listed or pictured in TPS. Unfortunately, pages 11-14 are missing. Still a great find.

Nice find Bill. It is a legitimate catalog.
While virtually everything in both catalogs is the same, the fonts and layout are very slightly different as I'm sure you saw. I took a very quick look and only some minor descriptions on page 14 - the price list for Hammerless Guns - have been deleted in your new catalog. These differences confirm that it is not an "artificially aged" photocopy of the other 1903 catalog.
