Description
C.W. PARKER FERRIS WHEEL TRADE CATALOG CIRCA 1925, The only known example of this 16-page catalog extolling the benefits and money making potential of a Parker Ferris Wheel.

This is one of only a few variations of Parker trade catalogs known and the only one of its type ever found.

Parker, Abilene, Kansas advertising flier promoting Shooting Galleries, double-sided, dated 1900; and A C.W. Parker Amusement Co. business card for P.D. Parker. Leavenworth, Kansas. Plus paper ephemera including an ink blotter, an Abilene, Kansas letterhead or memo blank and a photo-mechanical paste-up image of a carnival.
