Default Dealer Clapp & Treat (Hartford CT)

I am looking for orders or sales of Parkers through this store which was originally in downtown Hartford and ultimately in West Hartford. Of course actual guns that were sold through Clapp & Treat are of interest.
Like a lot of Parker sellers, it was originally a hardware store and it morphed into a sporting goods store. That was its downfall, probably.
It closed through a secured creditor sale in the late 80's or early 90's.
I would like to write an article about it for the pages if I get some information on orders and sales.
If you have any research letters that reflect orders by Clapp & Treat I would love to see them.
