26" barrel length would have been a special order gun for Parker to have built.
They are rarer than 28 and 30 inch barrels since a lot less of them were made. But not nearly as rare as 24" or shorter original guns.
If it is a collector gun in high condition, the 26" length would add a premium due to its relative rarity. However, as a shooter, it would not add much value unless the buyer wants a 26" gun since today longer barrels are prefered.
