Join the club! It began when mine was only a few months old....about 12 years ago.

Mine is in at least 450 pieces, but I think I know the reason.

not only my serial number book but my Parker Story books are doing the same thing.. I'm disappointed to have such high quality ( and expensive ) books look like they were bought at a rummage sale...

My copies of War and Peace and The Holy Bible are in pretty good shape compared to TPS and the Serialization Book. I wonder if it has something to do with degree of use?

My leather bound, slip-cased edition of The Parker Story sees a lot of use but because it is part of my somewhat valuable sporting library it gets handled with care and is always put back in the slip-case and put back in its place on the shelf.

My original started falling apart. I gave it to a friend and ordered a new one then added a reinforcement using goat skin leather and contact cement. Its been about 18 months and seems to be holding together.
Not pretty but I am a little hard on some of the books I use regularly. http://parkerguns.org/forums/attachm...1&d=1517626956 |
