I believe Parker Brothers could easily have done the work, Titanic marked rib and all. Back in those days, no one knew or cared about water table markings. The barrels could have been installed gratis for a "friend of the management". In that case, anything goes. By the way, this is another example of a gun that was sent to an Exposition as proven by the order book records, but not listed in the lists of Exposition guns in The Parker Story. This gun was listed in the New York Exposition of 1897, but not 1896. However, we know it was there because of the order book wording. This is a great gun with show gun and personality provenance as well as nice refinished condition. Congratulations, D.P. By the way, I have a gun that was displayed in the 1896 New York Exposition also.
