A research letter might shed some light on it.

That is a very nice looking DH. The Alaska stampings are interesting but I really doubt they were applied by Parker Bros. I would like to know who did it though. And why were the stamps on the barrels twice, but not one on the receiver or trigger guard? Perhaps the receiver would be too hard but the trigger guard would be soft enough.
I hope you can find the answer. |

I hope the letter sheds some light on the stylized initials that look like JB in the background of both of those ALASKA stamps.

That’s a fine piece of wood. Case appears to still have a lot of color.

That is a killer gun!
I doubt that the markings were done at the factory. And I have no idea as to why they are on it.

Compare the A, S and L with the overload letters.

DH with Alaska
Just talked with my friend Dwayne regarding his newly acquired DH stamped with ALASKA, read him everyone's comment's up to this point. At this moment he is on the PGCA website joining up and requesting his letter. I agree that this is a fine looking DH it has some nice remaining case colors and the wood is pretty much free of dents, cracks or scratches, the wood has darkened do to age and handling I suspect, it would be nice if it could be cleaned up enough to reveal the character of that stock it's nice.
