My entry to the Paper collector club
 

I have been looking at the below pictured Parker paper collection for some time and am very happy to have it home with me now. I learned a lot about paper with the help of Jeff Kuss. What a great resource who I look forward to meeting some day to further express my gratitude. A couple descriptions

Pic 1 and 2 are various catalogues with pic 4 having the original order form in the flying duck.

Pic 6 1890 price list

Pic 7 introduction of the Trojan

Pic 15 letter to WRA barrel test dircussion W R King signed

Pic 16 Letter to Sharps about cleaning rods

I am posting this to help others and hopefully for other experts to contribute to my learning. Enjoy this post.

That's one hell of a collection that you got.

Congratulations Brian.

That's quite a leap into the world of Parker ephemera.

One stop shopping.

Brian great collection of paper and all in great condition. Great find it like the pinecone catalogs and the flying ducks.

Brian great start on collecting- you are actually quite a ways along!!
Be sure to post the serial numbers on the hang tag list on this forum. Its a sticky.

34" barrels on one tag!

Very nice!
A question, does anyone know why the statement "brass shells should never be used with nitro powder" is imprinted on a couple of the hang tags?

Brian,Nice Parker paper collection,beautiful penmanship on the company letter thanks for sharing. J.J.
