J.J.,
Do we know when Loy engraved for Parker? Was it in the Remington days? I would think the authors of The Parker Story would have included even a tiny mention of that... yet there is none.
I've studied Loy's engraving style, especially his wonderful dogs, and have never seen a Parker with his dogs... They are, in my opinion, unmistakable.
Can ANYONE show pictures of a Parker with engraving not "attributable" to Loy, but KNOWN to be Loy's work or proven to be Loy's work?
I know this is a tall order to fill, and could even be impossible to do, and once again I apologize to appear argumentative.
Best, Dean
