Right George, but what did Remington use for a replacement for the "Parker Brothers" dog's head butt plate before they manufactured their own "Parker" dog's head butt plate? The one I posted the picture of, I believe - possibly a "transition" butt plate...?

Agreed. I think there was a period of time, perhaps turmoil, where they were not sure what they were going to change or keep. In my upcoming article on the Remington guns, you will see my position is that they told management that they were going to NOT lose money on the Parker operation, nothing would be thrown away and nothing new would be started until they had to.
