Mathew,
As Gary said, priceless. I have my fathers Parker and it shows similar wear if not more. It was a Christmas present brand new in the box. All that wear was from his hands and I would never consider doing anything to the gun to "pretty it up." I hope you feel the same about your great grandfathers Parker as its wear is from father to son for four generations. Many here have family Parkers and many more wish they did. I shoot anything off the shelf that is 1oz at 1180 feet per second or less. Easy on the old wood and easy on you.
Kindest, Harry
