PH Price

[Kirk Potter]

Anyone have a catalog from the 1915-1917 era?

What would have been the price of a PH?

Thanks.

Thanks, I was curious because the letter for my 1907 VH shows the cost as $50, while the letter for my 1916 PH shows the cost as $27. It was ordered by a retailer in NY, so maybe their was a discount.

There was discounts for dealers. My DH, the $100 gun, cost the dealer in Watertown, NY approximately $68. I believe dealers and distributors made more gross profit on Parker guns than Parker Bros. did.

That's cool, my Trojan was sold for 19.00 and retailed for 25.00 in 1913.

I read more and see you already said that.

As the country went through The Great War we also went through a great inflationary spiral. By the 1923 Parker Bros. catalog the price of a PH was up to $83 and the PHE $104.
