J. R. Pancake
 

The PGCA research letter on a Parker SB indicates that the gun was ordered by J. R. Pancake and shipped on September 21, 1937. Anyone ever run across Mr. Pancake in their research? If the letter wasn't signed by Chuck, I'd think it was a joke.

There was a plastic surgeon here in SE Tennessee with that last name. :)

It's a great name. It just makes me smile.

If his name was Cupcake he probably would never have shown his face at the traps...

Google is pretty good about turning up info on names in research letters. In this case, all I see is some restaurant in Oklahoma called Jr's Pancake House

Maybe Mr. Murphy has something on Pancake. He better not say maple syrup and butter, lol.

We have a local octogenarian nicknamed "Cupcake" that shoots trap at Spokane and Hauser.

I was a stagehand at the Lido de Paris, at the Stardust Hotel back in the 80s. We had a showgirl we called "Cupcake. That's all I'm saying. You gotta use your imagination.

I. R. Pancake, Plaza Hotel, Toledo, Ohio. Shot 1200 16 yard birds in 1937, average .8475. I don't know his correct first initial, but I would go with ATA before I would go with Parker Brothers.

Sounds like Bill found the guy
