At about the same time as they moved Parker to Ilion, Remington switched from producing their B "Special" Grade guns with imported walnut to fitting them with Selected Figured American Walnut.

Selected Figured Walnut, February 15, 1939.jpg

For 1938 the Model 31B "Special" Grade with imported walnut had a dealer price of $62.40 and a retail price of $77.45.

For 1939 the Model 31B "Special" Grade with Selected Figured American Walnut had a dealer price of $39.95 and a retail price of $51.70.

So, Remington had a good supply of American Walnut on hand for the VHE and GHE Parkers.
