Very fine leg of mutton and several other styles of leather cases were made by H.H. Heiser of Denver until they closed in 1955. My collection of Heiser catalogs do not show luggage style cases as I recall. Brauer Brothers made cases in the leg of mutton and Elliott style of slightly less quality than Heiser, probably into the sixties judging by the condition exhibited by surviving examples. Cases offered by Parker can be seen in the 1878? catalog and the 1937 Remington Parker catalog and probably others. To rehash your original question, "yes" there are luggage style cases offered by Parker and Remington Parker in all vintages, but none identified by markings on the case itself. The late 1800, early 1900 Parker cases are listed and pictured in the 1878?? Parker Brothers catalog.
