I advise against generalizing. There are some fine engraving examples throughout Parker production and some not so fine. Certainly the very late Runge engraved guns are some of the best. Evaluate each gun on its own.

There was a stylistic trend toward more open and larger scroll as time went on. Some prefer that to the earlier tighter scroll as you see in the A that I posted. There are many outstanding high grades in the 1920s.
