I wonder which wholesaler of Parkers was the farthest away from the factory in Meriden?
Probably somewhere in our colonies like Squires, Bingham & Co. in the Philippines.

Probably equally big in St Louis was Norvell-Shapleigh Hardware Co. that in 1910 bought the entire inventory of Remington break-action guns when Marcellus Hartley Dodge saw that Remington's shotgun future was with their John M. Browning designed autoloader and John D. Pedersen designed pump.
