The IFS stands for International Feature Service. They owned the rights to the images I believe and the IFS is featured on several sets if I remember correctly. I think the same logo is on the W516 set. I think they mainly owned rights to comic strips at the time and earned royalties when their comics were featured in newspapers of the time.

If I'm wrong, please let us know, but I'm pretty sure that's right.

I don't know about the other symbols.

Thanks,
