I had seven issues at one time but they went to Muderlak in a trade. I believe he later sold his original copies to another collector. He had at least a dozen if memory serves.

Destry, I have Ed's list of miscellaneous Parker paper for sale around here somewhere. I'll try to locate it.

They may or may not be on there, he sold stuff off before he ever did that list.

You are right, Destry. The "list" was rather bland. If there had been American Sportsman copies, I would have pounced on them.

The American Sportsman
I was able to buy a couple of issues from Ed Muderlack when he put them up for sale. I bought all he had at the time which was 4 issues if I remember correctly.

Thanks for all the replies. Some day I will get over to the Sporting Museum in Middleburg and search the stacks. Very recently, after many years of searching, I was able to purchase a bound volume of Ameican Sportsman from April to October of 1874. I have read the shooting sections, all 26 issues, cover to cover. It is not quite as interesting as sporting publications of the 1880's, but still an insight into the mind of Wilbur F. Parker. All of my previous shooting publications have been post clay target period. The American Sportsman has no clay target shooting results, only pigeons.
