Thank You Mr. Chuck Bishop

[Wally Barrick]

Mr. Bishop-

Thank you for pulling together the Research Letter for my Parker VHE. My shotgun letters perfectly. I am a bit surprised by the provenance indicating the shotgun was "given to (TS) D W Flannigan". I guess I now need to do more research on Mr. Flannigan. I am pretty confident this will lead to a great story.

Thanks again,

[Garry L Gordon]

The good Mr. Bishop is a great resource for our Association. :bowdown:

Wally, glad you are pleased with your letter. If you find anything about D.W. Flannigan, let me know. I've been trying to find out about him for a long time. He's not the only one in the IBM cards with the T.S. letters in front of their name. I've even asked old retired Remington employees if they recognize the name. I believe they were all employees of Remington and I'm just guessing that T.S. stands for Trade Sample or Technical Support.

Best,
Chuck
