According to The Parker Story (pg. 243) the 1913 flyer showed 16s and 20s as 28" mod. and full only. "We will accept no orders with exact specifications, nor will we deviate from the above dimensions in any particular."
So had they changed by 1917? It says that not until 1926 does it show the 26" available in their catalog. So if it is a Trojan, when they began boring chokes to the customer's request is the question. I was just guessing that so close to the start of production (1912) a full and full 16 Trojan would probably not be seen in 1917. Of course his choke measurements could be off. And a 0 frame for a 16 Trojan, in 1917 would have been a rare one. Just an opinion.
