I also found the gun to be very interesting and unique, just wanted to know if anyone had discovered the significance or identity of the person named on the bottom... The gun oozes early 1900's shooting history, and I'm sure there is a great story surrounding Parker #175916.

My research regarding the relationship between Parker Bros, Dupont Powder, Louis Parker, Jack Fanning, Try-Guns, Hank Stevens and the small-bores used at the Atlantic City shooting school, continues as a work in progress... Always something new to be found...

Best, CSL
