Default GH looking back birds

My interest in Parkers ready took off three years ago with the purchase of a 12 PH. My next gun was 16 GH on a 0 frame made in the 1892 that did not fit me therefore did not workout. But the engraving of the 2 birds one always looking back is normal for GH guns of that period.This gun was replaced with 16 GH 1 frame (that fits) from 1928. none of the birds are looking back. Is there a time when the engraving style got away from looking back birds ? just as 1926 or 27 Parker dropped the spur on the DHBP. Thanks in advance.
