Did Parker ever use the "Old Reliable" nick name in advertising
seems that would post date the manufacture of the guns
My guess is someone did a little editing work and made it - maybe for sale
easy enough to do with just a few minutes of spare time

Yes Rick, Parker Brothers did in fact use “The Old Reliable” and/or “Old Reliable” in their advertising. There are several instances where we have seen it.
