Steve- not sure about dates, the first Ilion gun is said to be 241154. it is supposed to be January 1938. The Honorable Charles Bishop could answer this question because that gun is in the Books.

How about some pictures Pat?

236252 was Burton G. Spiller's grouse gun and it has no logo on the frame. It had a leather faced pad the last time I saw it. I will always wish it were mine but I know it's in good hands.

My GHE 28 is 236475. Rib is marked but nowhere else. I believe it was the last Grade 2 ball gripped 28.
The high condition DHE 20 in Julia's auction was 236488, and was marked on the bottom of the receiver

Those who are participating in this study need to indicate "No frame marking of Parker Brothers", "Whether or not there is a rib marking", "Serial number", "Whether Parker Brothers is marked on the water table". Thanks.
