Those ten gauge guns were shipped January 7, 1916 to Iver Johnson Sporting Goods in Boston. The price was $25.00 each. A whole raft of Twist barrel twelve gauges were included on the same order for $22.00 each. These were the Twist barrel Trojans that are so hard to find. Parker Brothers must have been getting rid of composite barrels and making a bulk sale at a discounted price. However, my notes tell me that these are not the cheapest Trojans ever sold by PB. The cheapest I have found were $19.00.
