If you look close at the gun, the carving on the stock is D or C grade type. It's not the fleur de lis that a AA pigeon would have had. If Parker had made these signs to advertise that particular gun I think they'd have made the gun on the sign at least look like one. Fantasy item that somebody paid wayyyyy too much for.
