Collector Box of Parker 10 G Brass
Just watched a vintage box of Parker (green label) 10 G auctioned off at
Morphy's (lot 737) . It contained the empty brass shells, primed, and listed as fired. The box was intact, but the label was pealing off. Sorry, I could not get the picture to download from the site I was using.
Anyway, the estimate was $100 to $200. I bid $150 (I have a 10 Hammer gun) and watched as the final bid hit $650. I had no idea that old Parker brass in a box went for that. As far as I could tell from the poor photo the brass, it was not marked Parker, just some note re the primer.
