Default To P or not to P- The last one.

Came across this little 20 the other day. In all my years I have'nt seen one PHE20 and in the space of 7 days I run across 2. I was'nt at home so I called my researcher D. Suponski to see if he was near his TPS or serialization book. He was. I gave him the s/n and he immediately became unglued. According to TPS, Vol.1, p.268, Parker PHE s/n 235972 was the last P grade made and I'm about to cut a deal for it. Well here it is, I hope the pictures due it justice. It was still in the break down canvas case complete with cleaning rod. It had been stored in this case for over 25yrs. in a garage, along with a sweet mod.12 in 16ga., circa 1920. The gun is really an interesting piece and the story of how I found it and it's history I'll be working on for a future PP's article. I'd love to know where 202298 is. I'll have the gun at the Southern.
