Gents, From 1994 till he left for whatever reason Mr Ron Kirby was the man, He put all the stories together, people would send him info and photos to use. He and his wife would work at night after teaching school to put these early issues together, using grey paper they would staple the pages together and mail the copies to the membership, Six times a year! No they were not as fancy as todays Parker Pages but had a wealth of information on the Parker gun, that as is today the membership could not wait to get. All this with no cost to the PGCA but paper etc, Today I believe it cost about 28,000 to do the Parker Pages, My hat is off to Mr Kirby and his wife for the work done early on. It was truly a labor of love. Pardon me for digging up bones, Gary
