I own an unfired (per Larry Delgrego), serial 220657 GH 12 gauge. It carries the Parker Bros. overload proof stamp. It has to be one of the last damascus guns because PB had to hand engrave the barrel logo, rather then roll stamp it as usual. I always assumed that the roll die was lost or broken and it was cheaper to hand engrave the gun rather then build a new die. The gun also carries swivels. There are no records available on the gun, but per the serial, made in 1927 or 1928.
