Greetings from British Columbia
 

My father acquired an "old' double-barrel shotgun that was given to me before he passed away in 2003. He bought it for $50. I finally decided to look at it after 9 years and discovered is a Parker Bros. So that is why I am here.

Charles Tisdale Sporting Goods in Vancouver BC was a major Parker dealer. He later became mayor of Vancouver and was instrumental in creating that city's great system of parks. He would order up to 80 Parkers at a time for stock. I assume many remain in the region.
