Unusual D grade engraving

2 Attachment(s)

I just picked up this early D grade and it has an unusual engraving, particularly with regards to the Parker name.

A very early DH. I have seen that engraving before on these. And fairly sparse scroll as compared to the more standard later guns. Is there also a dog on the bottom of the gun?

There are birds in flight on the bottom

as Brian says - early DH - this is my three dog DH - only a few hundred into the hammerless serial number range

Five or six years ago I was after a DH 10 in the early engraving pattern someone had on GB . The seller and I never arrived at an agreement, kinda sorry I didn’t bend more :whistle:
