I think you guys are right. I can not speak for 1910, but I think I can speak for 1917. When a well-heeled buyer ordered from Parker, they had delivered exactly what they wanted - to their exact specifications.
That included some very strange requests - which results today in the saying "never say never when it comes to a Parker"..
And if there were questions or changes - the factory stood behind those. That was back in the day when "customers were customers", and treated as such.
Ask me how I know...
