I just spent some significant time looking on our PGCA Website to find where the Griffin & Howe listing of Parker Bros. shotguns that were bought, sold or otherwise consigned with Abercrombie & Fitch, Von Lengerke & Detmold or others was and I found where it used to be. But upon clicking on that link nothing happened... a blank page was all I got. Apparently Griffin & Howe chose to take that information down from their website so that it can no longer be accessed...
However, for those who have a complete library of past issues of Parker Pages or you had foresight enough to purchase the "Parker Pages Digital Archive" please turn to page 11 in your Winter, 2017 issue and you will find the beginning of the complete list of Parker Bros. serial numbers that went through those houses. The list is continued on page 11 of the Spring 2018 Issue.
Allen, your serial number 221866 was not to be found unfortunately.
