I believe that gun was owned by Willie Eckmeyer. He was a friend of our late member Terry Boose and his Dad and known by several of our other old time members. In later years, he lived in an upscale subdivision off Route 108 and Route 29 in Maryland, west of Baltimore. I remember a group of Parker collectors getting together at a small gun show and being invited to Willie's home on a Saturday afternoon. We waved bad Parkers around for a couple of hours. This was well before the formation of PGCA, maybe 35 or 40 years ago. I don't believe I ever saw Willie again.
