Delighted to come across the Parker Gun Collectors Association site & forum. My Dad is both an avid Parker enthusiast and wildlife artist. Below is a painting entitled "Crazy Mountains". A limited edition is available and I have temporarily discounted the pricing 10% so that members may enjoy the art in their home or office.

It is a very nice painting Scott. Didn't your Dad post this same painting here a couple of years ago?

Hi Chilled Shot,

I don't think Dad posted it, and I did do a forum search to see if it had been mentioned or posted previously and nothing came up. If memory serves me correctly, I did post it to a partridge hunting site a while back. You may have seen it there!

I believe that it was posted to the old forum at one time.

I bought one a while back after Bruce posted. It is a very good looking print.

Of interest to members may be a painting by Dad now in a local gallery. Commissioned by the hunter, his estate now has it for sale. If anyone is interested, the gallery is Hansley Gallery in Raleigh, NC.

You know,

I was just thinking.... If you really wanted to market your Dad's wonderful prints - you might contact Larry Frey on this forum - and get hooked up with an ad in Parker Pages (a high-quality magazine for Members), which goes out to every PGCA Member on the roster - probably about three times MORE PGCA Members then you see in this forum. That's a lot of potential customers for you as a direct marketing tool - and all are Parker enthusiasts.

I'd bet my last nickel that an ad in Parker Pages would more than pay for itself in a single issue, as advertising rates in our publication are very inexpensive... And you could probably use (if you ask their permission) current comments from the PGCA Members posted in this thread as an endorsement in that same Parker Pages ad....

Of course, PGCA Membership is also pretty inexpensive - which also gives some neat features in this Forum...

Just a thought...

John
