Forgive me if maybe this gun has been mentioned before, but I do not recall seeing it.
In perusing the Guns America listings for Parkers I found this DH that has a very unique treatment in regards to the "Parker Bros." name.
Everything else that I see looks normal for a DH.
Anyone ever observed this before?

Nope - haven't seen that rendition before. Thanks Brian. We had a thread on that here not too long ago... a year or two ago?
Possibly a replacement set of barrels on that one, judging by the doll's head fit.

There is a lot other things wrong with the gun than just the barrels.

It is interesting to note that it looks to be raised lettering rather than the letters being cut into the metal. The metal around the letters was cut away giving the name a relieved appearance. Much more difficult and time consuming to pull off and do it well.
