John and Dave,I found this information in the Parker Story on page's 599 and 600. This gun according to the serial number was one of 45 gun's ordered by Charles Eddy Parker. They were all C,B and A grade gun's with pistol grip stock's. Some were delivered to private individuals,some were used as salesman's samples and some were displayed at expositions.
Also I learned something new...Straight grip's were not offered on hammerless guns until about 1907.
As to the price.....a bit much....
