As one poster said, "a rare glimpse into the past", wearing a pink shirt.

congrats Edgar on the nice find. That must be a pretty nice gun shop what with the cased doubles in your first picture. So what about the C?

It takes a real man to wear pink, Bill. In fairness, it's more like that preppy Edgartown Red (other than summering there, no relation to me, Though my daughter Martha still refers to Marthas Vineyard as "My Vineyard")

Rich, that pic was back at Gary's house. Finding this gun was incongruous in that the shop is a little 'hole-in-the-wall' kind of place where you go to get .22s and general stuff. The owner has turned up some nice Parkers, including a 75% DHE that I bought a while back.

I'm going to get as much back-story as I can. That the gun was handled so little in the 85 years since new gives me hope the box may be kicking around.

Way to go buddy! I'm sure you felt just as I would have with a quickening pulse, dry mouth and rapid heart beat when that beauty was pulled out. Nice find and it proves that they're still out there. Now, I would'nt do this for anybody but I happen to be a self taught authority on virgins so if you would like to send it down to the Southern next week I'd would be happy to examine her thoroughly. For what's going on in Ct. with those crazy gun grabbers I feel she is not safe. By the way, nice shooting with you and the Ct. boys at Chuck's shoot.

It is cool to have a reference for the original case colors. You do not get to see that very much. I say shoot it. These guns were not made to sit in a box that is just my views anyway. First the 410 at a yard sale and now a mint VH in a small gun shop. What is next guy finds an A-1 in his attic?
