What year did Parker stop making Damascus Barrels?

Larry,

Does your gun have the Parker Bros. Overload Proved stamping on the barrel flats? I know I've seen composite barrel guns with that stamp.

Dave,
No Overload stamp on these barrels.

Bill,
My barrel legend has the Parker Bros Makers etc. roll stamped which is preceded by the Made In USA which was hand engraved. I assumed they made so few Damascus guns after 1919 when the USA stamp became required that rather than make a new roll die they just hand cut the Made In USA and rolled the rest.
