I scanned and photoshopped the cover of the cover of the October 1920 National Sportsman Magazine. The image is of a gentleman with a Parker, a young lady carrying decoys and a motorcycle with a side car. I have had the image made into a 17"x24" poster mounted on 1/4" foam board for my gun room. A picture of the actual poster is below. If you would like a copy of the image I used to have the poster made PM me and I will e-mail you a copy(please include your e-mail address in the PM). I had my local UPS store make the poster. Kinda a neat image. Craig

That guy had everything a sportsman could have wanted in 1920; come to think of it he even has it covered today! Now to find a woman to carry the decoys may present a problem.

Craig: I would like a copy. I have looked at that poster and if that is a woman she has the biggest set of hands on her that I have ever seen. Thomas

Farm gal. Or you may be right. That is a pretty hefty Parker (if both are) he is carrying in his left hand, with short barrels. The one in the right hand appears to me to have a smaller stock. Maybe his son? Craig obviously has the best view so I'll go with his opinion. I'm sending a p.m. for the file now.

Thanks Craig.

Parkers, motorcycle, picnic basket, duck boat, pipe, waterfowl in the air and a girl to carry the decoys!
the name of this poster should be PARADISE
