That is a similar style to the corners on the checkering of the beavertail on my AHE Trap in the mid 234,000 era. I'm sure they are all the work of the same checkerer, but I have no idea who that would be. I don't think stock books of the period address checkerers or engravers. As far as I remember, engravers were never named in stock book entries, but I don't know about checkerers. Different eras of stock books had columns for different skills. Look in The Parker Story for various examples of stock book styles.
