John, I was very pleasantly surprised last evening while perusing some old issues of DGJ and found that wonderful article by William W. Headrick beginning on page 84 of the Autumn 2000 issue. Headrick is probably the preeminent gun photographer today and his work has appeared in DGJ from the beginning. He does your Great-Grandfather George L. Osborn's Parker justice, don't you think? And to think, I've had the great honor and pleasure of shooting that gun... and my first impression when I hefted it was, Gee-rifus Ev, she don't weigh nuthin'!
Best, Dean
