Here's what I have on Barkers and T Barkers Barker: used by H.D. Folsom on guns they retailed T.Barker New York: (if a side lock hammerless double with no foreign proofs) made by Crescent T.

Barker double barrel exposed hammer shotgun, 12gauge, 30 ¼” barrels, 47” overall, serial number 6. The finish is drifting to a patina with good wood stocks showing a hair line crack at the wrist, normal use and aging. The gun locks up well and actions work. Barker was a brand name and these arms were made in Belgium for import to America.

Barker - made by Iver Johnson for, Baker, hamilton, & Pacific Co., San Francisco, Co T. Barker: with Belgian markings were made by Theate Freres, a Belgium gun maker from 1907 to 1950.

Everything I've come across on the single barrels is Iver Johnson manufacture but with all these old trade guns nothing is marked in stone. _________________ If nothing sticks to teflon then how does teflon stick to the pan? Here is some info in Crescent and some of their trade names. Hope this helps. Prime among the shotguns readers and members inquire about are those made by two long- defunct, companies: Crescent Fire Arms Company once located in Norwalk, Conn., and H.∓D.

Folsom in New York City. From 1888 to 1899, Crescent made shotguns on its own. Sometime around 1900, the company merged with N.R. Davis and H.∓D.

Folsom, becoming Crescent- Davis. Crescent made shotguns for many, many companies under many names. Once amalgamated with H.∓D. Folsom, the list exploded.

[The following is an excerpt from my recently published [i]The Shotgun Encyclopedia[d] (2000, Safari Press) that may help identify an heirloom.] H.∓D Folsom was located at 312-14 Broadway, New York, N.Y., and imported and distributed firearms from about 1890 to 1930. At some point they merged with Crescent-Davis, and were finally sold in 1954 to Universal Tackle and Sporting Goods Co.
