Very interesting. My copy is 1 of 450 limited edition signed by the author, however mine is missing the page denoting # of 450 with the author’s signature. Now I’ll need to go back down to my library to see if that page has been cut out.


Well, my copy is not missing that page so it is not one of the LE of 450....
And it’s not one of the other limited editions of 150, so I guess it is only a slip-cased trade edition. But like Harold says, it really is a good read.

My copy is also one of the 5000 and has a slip case; however, someone repaired it with masking tape years ago. Always meant to get around to trying to repair it...

The title of our journal is Parker Pages not "The Parker Pages" or "the Parker Pages" as we have so often seen it.

We don't say "the Field & Stream" or "the Outdoor Life" or "the Gray's Sporting Journal" or "the Shooting Sportsman" so why do so many people say "the Parker Pages"?

It just ain't right I tell ya, it just ain't right...

Call me crazy but someone should rename it The Parker Pages. It has that certain je ne sais quoi like when a football player announces his alma mater:

THE Ohio State University
THE University of Florida
THE Parker Pages! Field and Stream and Outdoor Life are low lives compared to this publication anyways, they can't possibly pull off the "THE."
