Parker Lifter ad
 

many may have seen this ad before- but it was new to me so I thought i would share it -

we stopped at one of our favorite antique shops today and the owner was going through a pile of old late 1860 to 1870's newpapers entitled Turf, Field and Farm. Knowing I like old guns, he handed me the July 29 1871 with an add for "breechloader" shotguns on the back. (the front page article is a July woodcock hunt in Blooming Grove PA)

I turned in one page from the back and found an ad showing the Parker lifter

here it is
