Are you certain about that serial number?

The very first SBT in the records is 177318, however a SBT with serial number beginning 176XXX has been found. The Parker Bros. SBT was introduced in 1917.

That's right Bill - that's why I question the accuracy of the serial number given him by the seller. We know 1901 is not possible for a Parker Bros. SBT and that's why I question him here....

The seller finally sent me an updated email with the correct ser # which is 191432. Am I correct this was made in 1920? It does have the pigeon on the bottom plate.
Thanks for all you assistance?
Jim
