Start with a PGCA letter, use the Griffin and Howe Parker research feature, post the complete serial number on this thread so that many amateur researchers with Parker tidbits can help you. Tell us what information you got from the seller. You may end up with some hard provenance.

This thread brings back a lot of memories. In August of 1977 I first met Ottis Odom while trying to find a good 28 gauge. He was a little hard to get to know at first but once he warmed up to you he was a treasure trove of knowledge.
After some time elapsed Ottis agreed to part with a GHE 28 with 26" barrels, single trigger, Beavertail forend and checkered but on a straight stock. Serial # 236916. Several years later a west coast dealer, Mike weatherby talked me out of it. I still have sellers remorse.
