Greetings to all,
Wonderful resource here - appreciate it. Brief history: my neighbor died suddenly, & he had a big collection, including a Parker 1889 DH. We were close. I am helping the widow and have sent collection to a local gun store on consignment and priced everything except the Parker. I intend to get the Parker identification letter for her soon.
To get a jump start on the value estimate, my question is: does anyone out there have any additional information about this gun that might help me price it for her?
Technical Info:
Parker 10 ga.
Serial #: 58969
Made in 1889, DH grade
Frame Size: 3
Original metal finish, gray patina. Barrel says "Damascus Steel" and has not been cut down.
