I am not an official Parker Bros. historian, actually just an enthusiast who bought the book. YMMV

Many thanks to all replies so quickly. I thoroughly enjoy being a member with the Parker Gun Collectors Assoc. Not only is the " Old Reliable" a great American SxS, it is the best with very high quality! Again, thank you Kevin, James and Bruce

Minor correction - the Parker Gun Works moved to Ilion in 1937.
