Parker Gun Belt Buckle

[Wayne Owens]

Has anyone seen one of these buckles or have any information of it's history? It is made of 14K gold and sterling silver. This one is marked 2 of 50 but I have been told not all 50 were produced do to the high original price.

Al Capone's men used Parkers like that with their Chicago Typewriters.

I know where one is. NFS I am sure. The owner might pipe in with his comment.

Thanks to one of the PGCA old time members, I have found out information regarding the history of the belt buckle. These buckles were advertised in the "Parker Pages" from volume 1, issue 1 (Jan/Feb) of 1994 through volume 3, issue 3 (May/June) of 1996. Charter member Hans Boyesen of Viking Inc. made them. I assume there were 50 planned to be made since there were 50 PGCA charter members. I was told by another member that all 50 were not produced due to price. I still haven't found out who owned this particular buckle.
