I finally got a Parker that you can trace back to a person instead of a hardware store. As you can see from the letter it was purchased by Henry Eckhardt. He was born in Germany where he learned his trade and then moved to Sacramento, Ca. He was a gunsmith as well as an engraver. Being a gunsmith I wonder if he cut the bbls to the 27 inches they are now.
