Panama-Pacific International Exposition of 1915
Does anyone have a Parker Brothers shotgun known to have been exhibited in this 1915 International Exposition according to your research letter or provenance accompanying your gun when you acquired it?
Page 619 of The Parker Story alludes to this Expo and indicates that AH Fox had a large display there but there are no surviving Parker Bros. records that would support Parker Bros. having a display there.
One would think that with A.W. duBray, Parker Brothers' west coast salesman residing in San Francisco, Parker Bros. would most certainly had a well stocked display in this exposition.
Any help would be appreciated.
