Screw heads are different.

That appears to be a very common butt plate. I did a quick glance at some guns and I found at least five that have that butt plate. The earliest was a 1917 while the latest was a very late 241k range Remington gun. All had the flat screws like Rick's guns with the exception of the Remington era gun, it had the rounded head. The Rem gun was absent the "Bros".

That is very common. It is the number 1 Size plate. Used on all 1 frame and 1-1/2 frame guns. As well as earlier 0 frame guns.
The one posted about here looks different in the screw areas because it simply had the wrong screws installed. Ones with too small of heads.

i have seen a good number of them. That plate, along with several others, is shown on page 103 of Vol. 1 of The Parker Story.

I will add that in the mid 1920s, at the same time Parker switched to the unspurred buttplate, the screws also changed to a domed style which was a little smaller in diameter. Vs. the former large screws that were filed off flush with the plate. With these later plates the countersunk screw holes in them are smaller to coincide with the smaller screws.
Details...

Are any of the current reproduction plates available with the woodcock logo?

Keavin,
Any number 1 size plate would have that dog with the snipe in its mouth. That is what was on all of the number one plates. So a reproduction of it would have it as well.
