Yes, it is shown on page 8 of the Summer 2016 Issue of Parker Pages on the color Morphy's Auction full page advertisement. Definitely a piece for a collector.
It would surprise me however, if the gun "was given to Lefever by Parker" as the write-up states. There doesn't appear to be anything in the research letter that would indicate Parker Bros. ever bought the gun back from an owner.
