Parker Gun 1912 flying duck

fish for information yes.
Fishing to sell maybe, what little I have found says that it is rare?

Please post pictures of the cover as well as something showing it is from 1912. It's cover sounds like the 1916 catalog on page 756 of Volume two of the Parker Story. If it really is a 1912 catalog, then it is fairly rare, since when Louis Parker and I provided the information for the chapter on Parker catalogs in the Parker Story, neither one of us had that catalog in our collections

The Board of Directors should do something about this type of subversion of forum rules. We see it often and there is a simple fix: no private messaging for "forum associates."

Why would he get so many PMs if he has a 1916 Flying Ducks that he values at $650? By the way, TPS describes it as a "Flying Geese" catalog. Those are ducks, not geese. The poster must send a picture is he wants to sell it on this site. I agree that non PGCA members should not have PM privileges on the For Sale subforums. By the way, what is the catalog that Mike Kobos describes that is not in TPS?

I agree with Bill, any forum associate (non Parker member) should not have PM privileges because too many come on here just to fish and see who takes the bait. I don't think it would be that hard to turn of PM's to forum associates.

The catalog that started this thread is listed as a 1912. TPS does not show the catalog as described other than under the 1915 description that says "A new catalog appears in 1915, or maybe earlier, with a new cover..." That is the reason I suggest that the original poster show evidence from inside the catalog that it is in fact a 1912. The 1915 and 1916 are easier to find.
