Sears sold T. Barker & Thomas Barker hammer guns

1899 with Laminated Steel (Twist)



Interesting 1902 Sears catalog listing is for T. Barker but and the illustration clearly says T. Parker
'Royal Damascus Finish, from Wilson's celebrated steel' would be Faux Damascus



The country of origin requirement started in 1891. Note the different font.



Not very long ago the gun would have been offered at a Gun Show for $150 and sold for $100 by Sunday morning
