Default Orphan VH Parker

I have a 1934 VH gun that appears to have come out of the factory with a different Parker name engraving on the underside of the receiver, similar to the Parker name shown in photo 3, page 14 of the Baer book, rather than the edge scrolling and Parker Bros across the sides of the receiver. Any comments from the gallery would be welcomed. JF

Remington Parker.
If I'm not mistaken, Remington was only licensed to use the name Parker, not Parker Bros.
Location of the Parker name was changed when the manufacturing left Meriden.
