Well, I think The Charles Parker Co. Retained the rights to the "Parker Brothers" name back in 1934. That is why Remington used the name "Parker".
Who knows what exactly happened to the Parker Brothers name over time since the CPCo. Is gone now.
The O/U are technically "Parker Bros. Makers"
I can't figure out how anyone thought the O/U venture was a good (or catchy) idea...
There is a 2012 price list on their website. $99,000 for an A1S !! The Galazan Parker sounds good!

Bill, I think your right. I believe the last time I saw the Parker Brothers Makers gun was Sandanona. In fact I was right around the corner today from Sandanona at Safari Outfitters.
