Stan, apparently the ultimate purchaser of your 5E was Jim Kelley, who I could find no mention of in ATA records. He either liked it and kept it, but didn't shoot registered birds, or he sold it through his sporting goods store. Oddly, there were two Knick Sousa Grade guns in the Boa order, twenty percent of the total production. My Sousa is the last Knick and the highest serial number of identified Knick Sousas. In depression days, these pricey guns were sent back and forth between the factory and dealers, sometimes for years. It was the same way at Parker Brothers.
