Your first Parker is in very nice original condition showing use, of course, but also showing that it was well cared-for all of these 120 years. Congratulations.

A lovely GH 16 on an 0 frame in pretty much unaltered condition is a very marketable gun. The only question I have from the pics is the finish on the buttstock. Would have to see it up close but it might not be the original french polish, or may have been cleaned up and touched up. Looks too fresh and without blemish to match the wear on the receiver. Just a hunch, can't tell for certain. That being said, I have seen similar guns but not quite as nice go for $2200 to $3500 over the past couple of years. Some ask a lot more but the guns don't move. JMHO.
