The Parker Gun 1895 Showroom Catalog

[WHO]

I also have one that is not numbered or signed.

Jeff, I took mine apart, and there is no evidence of ever being impressed with a number, nor has there ever been any writing on it.

Joseph why does it say banned under your name???

It looked as if he was fishing to sell the catalog and other books without being a member. That was my take on it.

Now I recall that Larry Baer embossed numbers on his books when the customer paid for all three books on his initial order. I still have my paperwork and will confirm that.

Interesting. They may have been overruns that got sold or a special issue.

[Dean Romig]

I'll have to find mine and look for those...

Mine isn't signed or numbered. Ordered early on so it shouldn't have been an over-run. If I remember correctly, signed and numbered copies were an extra cost but only 500 copies overall.
