Default Is it a Parker Invincible?

My Dad gave me this 16 Gauge several years ago, but couldn't recall any of its history. Is it a Parker? What can you all tell me about his gun? All I can discern is "Invincible" and the serial number. See attached photos.

It's not a Parker Brothers gun.

It is a "trade branded" Harrington & Richardson.

Yes, Bill. It is that legendary missing fourth Invincible.
