After reading page 138 of The Parker Story, I believe this model GHE (1902) had a leaf spring. The good book says the coil springs were a later introduction circa 1918 or so. Thanks Julian, you put your finger on the problem. I'll have Dan Cullity fix it or send it out to Brad.

No, the trip spring is a coil. It could just be that the trip is stuck in the down position due to dried grease or dirt. You need to study how Parkers work. The spring you are referring to sounds like the top lever spring. Two altogether different springs.
