Parker Brothers - BHE, J. Cliff Green Matched Pair (4 Barrel Set) #50844/50845

Parker Brothers - BHE, J. Cliff Green Matched Pair (4 Barrel Set). World Renowned J. Cliff Green Matched set 4ga pair, consecutive serial numbers, Parker Bros, BHE, single trigger, Gold capped pistol grip, skeleton butts, beavertail, skeet guns, this very special one-of-a-kind cased pair consists of consecutively numbered ½ (half) and “00” frame receivers. Four sets of barrels, each with its own A1 style beavertail forend, were made for this pair - the only Parker documented pair that we have ever seen. This 2 gun 4 barrel set consists of 410, 28, 20, and 12 gauge 24” tubes, all unique in themselves for those reasons. The half frame gun is the only one made with both 12 and 20 gauge 24” barrels. Likewise the “00” frame is complemented with the most unusual 24” 28 gauge tubes and 24” 410 barrels which are the only Parker barrels made in this configuration. There is a letter, that we have a copy of, delivered to the NRA December 15, 1937, it’s a letter that completely describes these guns, stating that this was “the most difficult task the Parker gun works has ever been called Upon to undertake”. These are considered the most documented Parkers in existence of the very highest quality and workmanship, and the work on these guns is virtually unequaled, one of the true landmarks in the American Shotgun collecting and Parker guns collecting. This is one of the most significant opportunities in gun collecting.
