Default When was Bead sculpting eliminated on D grades and below?

Was looking through TPS, and read the part again about removing the Bead sculpting from guns below D grade in the mid 20s.

My question then is, did all guns prior to this have bead sculpting on the bolsters?

My 1921 VH has them and my 1890 GH has them, surpisingly though, my 1899 DH does not...
