It doesn't have any evidence of ever having any label at all, so that leads me to think that regardless of who produced it it was not made to be reproduced widely.

“May also have been involved” is a stretch—both for your argument and the evidence. I’ve read the Knick club books and never found any mention of Edward. I don’t know Peter personally, but I would think that his reference of Edward is along the lines of, “he had two brothers in the club, so maybe.”
I just can’t imagine the Anthonys stocking branded mounts for commercial use and plain mounts for personal use. Your dating of the mount places it at the peak of Henry Anthony’s powers as a stereoscopic photographer.
