[QUOTE="clutteredcloset49, post: 1813237, member: 85"]Not really. If it was made for export, it didn't need to have the country of origin put on it until 1891 when the McKinley act was passed. If it was made to stay in the country it was made in, it didn't need to be marked with country of origin. Paper labels were used after WWII. Mostly by Japan, Hong Kong, Thailand and now China. Japan would not have used those stamped numbers. However, Germany and Austria would have. Most English companies marked their items in some way, but not all.
