An interesting side note; The John P. Lovell Arms Co. of Boston was also a large purchaser of Parker Bros. shotguns. Recently, while researching a Parker with Chuck Bishop he informed me of an entry in an Order Book that in 1883 the John P. Lovell Co. returned a large quantity of Parker shotguns to Meriden (some sixty or eighty guns) with the instructions to "refurbish burned guns". Apparently there had been a fire in the store or warehouse.
