None any better that I recall, and as a still-life.

The natural world as studio.

Great colors and detail. Thanks for the teamwork to get it done, and for the evocative story behind the photo.

Scott

then you both deserve equal credit

Not unlike the world famous Getty Images - I've updated the opening page image and artistic credit accordingly.....

Default Parker / Remington era gun

Hi, I'm looking for a bit of info on a post 1934 Parker/Remington that appears to be Grade 2, GH, Serial Number 238674, SST.

Any detail would be greatly appreciated.

Kindest regards,
Mark

Mark, you should order a PGCA Research Letter to get the most information possible.

However, the Serialization book shows it as a G grade, with ejectors, single trigger, beavertail forend, straight grip, 16 gauge with 28” barrels.

Sounds like a very desirable Parker.

Dean, Many thanks! Yes sir, a Research Ltr is in order as well. Simply wanted to ensure the matching Serial #s confirmed the details you kindly provided to the gun in hand before purchasing. Again, many thanks! WMH
