Most interesting thing for me is seeing the difference in the work done by one journeyman engraver compared to the other on sequentially numbered examples.

Clearly working from the same pattern for Grade 3 - but not the same.

Both are 12 gauge on 1 1/2 frames.

Noticing that I prefer one guy’s work over the other.

To come back to the original question, you had me at “a nice Parker for sale”… when that happens, I have to find a way to decide I’m not wanting it.

I realize this thread is on consecutive serial numbers. But, here’s another oddity in the Parker world, this one involving Parker Reproductions that a member had shown us in the past; two 12ga. Repros with the same serial number! One a DHE Steel Shot Special, the other a standard DHE.
