I thought I would say hello from Jim Thynne

[Jim Thynne]

Still kicking at 84 and still involved in the shotgun world. I thought that someone out there would remember me!! Howdy from Mohave Valley Arizona. Great trap and skeet fields up the road! My phone # is 714-501 4510... Jim

Jim,
I bought my first Parker from you. It was a DHE 32" miller trigger, beavertail. I won a number of events with that gun. Thanks for the memories!
Buddy

Wasn't my first Parker but it was a DHE 20 with 32" barrels purchased when you and Jerry were at the Sandanona Vintage cup many moons ago. At 76 I'm not far behind. Good to here from you.

Good to hear from you, Jim!! I just turned 80 last month. I know for sure I got a 16-gauge SP-Grade A.H. Fox and a 28-gauge Superposed from you and Jerry at Las Vegas shows. Have always wished you had been more emphatic about the rarity of the Ithaca Lefever A-Grade .410-bore you had there one year!!

Dave is that the SPR 16? if it is it is one of one I got the gun from the Meyer Ponteprino collection. It was one of the rarest Fox guns ever made

Dave is that the SPR16? I got that gun from a very famous collection, if that is the gun. I believe it is the only 16 SPR ever made!

Hi Jim - I well remember you and Jerry Kitto’s Ivory Beads.
So glad to know you’re still on the green side of the grass my Friend!

Ivory Beads will be recognized as a really big part of collecting history. Too bad you didn't have a presence on the East Coast. Congratulations from another "80" guy.
