Speaking of early vs. late . . . here's what is believed to be the earliest and very first Parker Reproduction brochure. You will notice that nowhere in the brochure are the guns referred to as a Parker Reproduction (with a capital P and capital R), but rather, in this particular brochure only, they are called The Parker Gun or The Parker Gun by Winchester. You may also notice that the brochure mentions that the gun was available with a SSBP or DHBP. It's assumed that Tom Skeuse subsequently named the guns Parker Reproductions in order to get around the naming rights protected by Remington.
