[QUOTE="clutteredcloset49, post: 373908, member: 85"]I don't think the marks are different. What is different is the amount of ink that was applied to the mark. The letter underneath could be a date letter or a decorator letter and not the company. In 1921 the US import laws required items to be marked "Made in" what ever country. Prior to that just the country name appeared without the "Made in". That lustre was very popular up to WWII. Not so much after, although some continued to be imported, as Johnny said.[/QUOTE]
