Let me express my lack of knowledge for a moment here - did Parker sell cases? Or would you have to buy the gun and obtain the case elsewhere?

PB would provide a case if requested. A&F cases were also offered for a 2 year stint I believe in the Remington era. They may have been offered at other times as well, not sure on that.

From at least the 1880's catalogs, maybe earlier, to the end of the Remington period, cases have been offered in Parker catalogs. However, I don't think we have ever seen an original Parker case label.
