Current bid: $0 Will that change??
 
With a minimum bid of more than 10X my recent Trojan purchase, I might let this guy auction it off for me. Is this caveat emptor or am I missing something???

Have a look

To the uninitiated "caveat emptor" is certainly warranted and I don't think they'll get even one bid from anyone with even a modicum of Parker knowledge.
That grade of black walnut belongs on a G grade and the sculpting is not true to an original Trojan stock.

A few items previous to this one is a CHE with factory single trigger, ejectors, and skeleton butt for a starting bid of $1200.

Ah, yes. That's the famous "Mickey Rooney" C-grade.

Ed: I need educating. Is your message tongue in cheek or is that part of the true provenance or..........???

Thanks,

Thanks Ed:)

I would be the guy coming up from behind to ask the question and getting the master's response :)

Jack, you may not have been aware, but the munchkins from the Wizard of Oz had their own trap team and there is munchkin provenance for many of these short stocked, high drop guns. Serious munchkin collectors seek out these guns and pay astounding amounts.
