CHEQUERED BUTTS

Regarding Scott's new gun, I know this was bought through a private sale and not on the open market. Highly desirable small bore Parkers seldom reach the market and are often sold privately by word of mouth.

Thanks Bruce, Dean, et al The one that I have I bought at Holt's auction in England. It has British proofs and an initial plate with the name McGraw engraved. I plan to bring it to The Southern to try for more information. The Parker letter that I recieved had very little new info aside from the fact that it was made & shipped in 1925.
Best Regards, George
