I tried to find this rose at Vrijbroek Park but is gone according to their management. It is a parent of Lady Huntingfield and I had hoped that either of the found roses "Fake Perle" or "Wood Street Buff Yellow" would be it as they are similar in growth to LH. Unfortunately no other garden has it in their lists.

The American Rose Annual (1925) Dr. William L. Hess, "More Denver Rose News", p.101

"Aspirant Marcel Rouyer is a deep apricot, more reddish in center, tinted salmon on the outer petals. It resembles Joseph Hill, though a poorer grower, the latter doing exceedingly well in this climate."

Dr. Hess seems to have managed to grow quite a number of Pernetiana type HTs in Denver, zone 5.
