I especially like that that one has a graded Parker. Very nice!

THIS would be a neat Outdoor Life find, though not likely by Foster. I can't read the artisit's name.
A Trojan skeet gun!

...and with a straight stock(!), but, alas, only one trigger.

A Trojan skeet gun!

And with a Parker Trojan prototype Skeet gun!!
Is that painting signed by someone other than WHF?
Many of Foster’s magazine illustrations only had an F as his signature.

I just received my copy of the magazine today
Looking forward to a few good articles. One of the articles is filled with foster illustrations from his book.
Thanks guys.
It never ceases to amaze me the amount of knowledge in this group.
I have a few other illustrations that I could use help in finding what they where done for.
I will start a new post with one tonight with some photos
