O.W. Gaines was a Parker Brothers employee in marketing until 1906 when there is evidence that he resigned. His name shows up as a PB representative at least back into the mid 1890s. He was an active promoter of the Pigeon Gun when it was being introduced. This information mostly came from a search for "gaines" in Sporting Life magazine on the la84foundation.org website.
