Craig, your 1904 Parker is a wonderful example of the kind of art that ushered in the Art Deco period. Art Deco began in Europe in about 1908 and didn't become popular here until after WW-I. The border engraving everywhere on the frame is exquisite and the scroll engraving on your Grade 5 is wonderful.
