I'm trying to pinpoint this center brand within the 1920's. Is it specific to the late 1920's? Might it be earlier? Or it is only dateable to 1921-31? I have a feeling the Malta book might break it down, but I don't have the book...

Thx if anyone can give insight.

Looks like a 1929-on, based on the non-base line 1 in 125

That was my assumption, but I've found instances when the non-baselined 1 label was given an earlier attribution. This Walter Johnson bat, for instance, was dated to labeling period 1925-31...

Because the earlier to mid 1920s didn't have the underline but the brand had differences though b
