So it ain't a Parker?

[Garrett Cheek]

So the Parker I was gifted isn't a Parker. What I thought was a "Dollar" grade built in 1881 is an English Tho's Parker. I can't find much info on it except it may be an H. Pieper machine build from the Montgomery Ward Catalog. It has Birmingham machine stamps on the water table and barrels. Really nice scroll work and engraving. The rebounding hammers and back action work. To me it's a beautiful gun with sentimental value as it was a gift from my in-laws with some family history for them and my wife. Does anyone on here know any more about these guns or where information can be found? Since it has Parker on the side, I'm sure this comes up every so often here.
