T.H. Keller was the manager of the New York office of Peters Cartridge Company. He was a prolific competition shooter as well as a way more than serious hunter. He had a rather large "motor launch", whatever that is, where he and his co-owners entertained waterfowl hunters. I own Keller's DH Grade hammerless eight gauge that apparently was his gun for volume waterfowl slaughter. It is the only 30" hammerless eight Parker ever made, according to The Parker Story. It is a lightweight at about ten pounds, maybe the lightest Parker eight out there. It handles like a bird gun. Go on la84.com to search for many mentions of Keller's exploits.
