The "American Flag Bunting", "Washington" or "Stars & Stripes" pattern was quite popular and is found on G & H Grade Lefevers, Ithaca Lewis Grade 4, Ithaca Flues 1 1/2 Grade, Remington 1894 C grade ("Washington N 3. B.P."), Syracuse Arms Co. ("Improved Damascus"), Spencer Gun Co., and Hollenbeck Gun Co. drilling barrels.
Walt Snyder's 4E Flues This is the 'gold towel guy's' Remington 1894 C grade The 'lopin' started like this and the pattern was developed specifically for the U.S. market by E. Heuse-Lemoine It is similar to Remington "Etoile 3. B.P." but with smaller and finer scrolls and stars. This also a 1894 C grade

Thanks Tom. Do you know if your Pieper was for the U.S. market?
The pattern clearly shows that Washington was 3 Iron; 2 full scrolls between 1/2 scrolls. I believe the 'gold towel' specimen Bruce posted is 2 Iron

We are trying to find out if there are any other Parkers out there with this American Flag Bunting Damascus pattern. We have learned through observation that Parker used odd barrels at times so it's a matter of whether this is the only one , one of twenty etc.
There may be others using the Turkish Star pattern, we don't know And who knows , maybe there is another Parker with name woven into the pattern like the Terrell gun. |
