Yes, in fact it was an "official/unofficial" Parker Bros. policy for their engravers to not sign their work. The corporate line so to speak was that the guns were a product of Parker Bros. engravers, not a specific individual. Nonetheless, there are a few examples where the more feisty or individualistic personalities prevailed and they did sign their work as Dean has pointed out.
