The guns on the IBM cards are from the Remington era. However, some Remington era gun are marked like Parker Brothers guns. I assume your gun is marked Remington on the bottom of the receiver and not marked Parker Brothers on the side of the receiver. How do you interpret the spelling of the customer for your gun?

The first Parker produced under Remington ownership was 236531

Bill meant to write; 'I assume your gun is marked PARKER on the bottom of the receiver not marked Parker Bros. on the side of the receiver'.

Hi All.

The customer was a Mr A.R. TACEY shiped 23-11-37.
The Parker name is not on the side but under the frame.

Dean, thanks for correcting my error. David's gun should be marked PARKER on the bottom assuming Remington manufacture.
