If "small bore Parker" means a VH 28, for example, I would think that a minty Del Grego restoration from the seventies would sell for about the same price as a clean, unmolested original with 0% to 10% case colors.

Gunsinternational #100506293 is a current example (though not a Del Grego example) that speaks to the issue discussed herein. I don't know how to post a link and offer the reference as collaborative evidence only not to foster a sale.

Bruce, I'm not sure anyone assumed you were criticizing DelGrego, or anyone else. When I say I do not care for someone's work, I'm expressing my opinion, and I think there is a difference.
The example you show is a nice example of cyanide colors and not what I'm used to seeing identified with DelGrego.
