The Parker Repro Story

[Wild Skies]

Great stuff Marvin, thank you!

There were at least a couple more Repro brochures printed in addition to what you've posted. If you'd like, I could take pics and e-mail them to you to add what you've created.

Greg,

I used a flat bed scanner and "saved as" .jpgs files so I could post them in a photo album. If you could do that with additional material that would be great. Just e-mail them and I'll take a look.

I wonder, too, if any of the forum members has the original magazine article? I think it is the Jan/Feb 1996 issue of Shooting Sportsman (SS). I'd love to get a clean, color scan of the article. The one I have is a B&W copy of a copy of a copy.

Marvin, I have the Oct./Nov., 1988 Shooting Sportsman magazine with an interview of Jack Skeuse about the Repros, if that's the article you are referring to. I don't remember reading any other SS articles about them. I could take a pic and email it to you if you'd like, but I don't have any way to scan it. I'm pretty sure there was no article in 1996 as that would have been 7 years after they were discontinued. Someone had better thank me; I seem to be the only one here with no "thanks!" Nice collection of brochures. I have a few old letters and I'll see if I have any brochures or newsletters that you haven't posted.

Joe,

I'm proud to be the first to give you a "Thanks"!

The article I was referring to is the one at the link above. I'm not sure it was Shooting Sportsman but there is an "SS" at the bottom of one of the pages (as was the date).

Pics of the articles should work, just shoot them a little large so I can crop them etc. for the posting.

Thanks again,

Marvin

Marvin,

Why don't you start a album?

Marvin, the article you're referring to is actually from the Feb. 1996 issue of Shotgun Sports Magazine, my copy is also a B & W copy of a copy.
