The large oval plate of "The Pulse. Le Pouls." from "Sterne's Sentimental Journey Vol. I" is signed "J. Northcote Pinxit John Harris excudit Parker sculp" and "Publish'd July 10th 1783, by J. Harris, Sweetings Alley, Cornhill" <Robert N. Essick> (see Plate 5).[40]
Parker sent his print after Barralet for Boydell called "Fainasollis Borbar & Fingal" to the exhibition of the Society of Artists in 1783, when he was living at 19, Little Drury Lane <British Museum Print Room> (see Plate 4). The engraving, "From the Original Drawing in the Collection of Charles Boddam Esq.r ", has no imprint, but apparently it was published by Macklin, who paid Parker £80 for it.
