I just purchased a Holiday Magazine cover from November of 1947. It has a graded Parker underneath a fireplace mantel with a painting of three Ruffed Grouse feeding in a field above the mantel. All my favorite things in one picture. I wish I could figure out how to post an image of the picture. Shells on the mantel are red and either twenty or twenty-eight gauge. The signature on the painting is C. Allen. Very nice to find.
