At that time (1935), being right after the Remington takeover, there would not have been many (if any) changes in the guns themselves. These guns were still made in Meriden. And since the same people were making them at the same location, just under new management, nothing would have really changed. All I could think of is that they might have been marking the "PARKER" on the bottom of the receivers at this time since Remington did not have the rights to the "PARKER BROS." name in full.
Maybe others could confirm if the change in receiver markings was done in the Remington/Meriden years.

The other significant Remington changes in marking/appearance such as the unmarked barrels, fatter wood and different grip caps would have come after the 1937 move to Illion.
