Those are the 4 that I know of....but, although not Socony, there is a Stanocola version that is beautiful...it looks like the round Stanocola signs...

Looks like Litchfield used the word "of" normal size and Felsenthal used a small "of" with a line under it. Other than that they are about the same. I've always assumed the ones with no manufacturer were fakes. Anyone know if that is right or wrong?

Great info guys!
I've always wanted to get these since I collect socony items mostly but have never bought any due to all the repro's out there. I might have to pick um up as I start to see them now...


Got Socony???
