HAMMER BRAND stamps

Post by Joe Dirt » Mon Jan 24, 2011 4:58 am

HAMMER BRAND stamp photos with dates.
Previously published with hand drawn images.
Pictures include an undocumented Imperial HAMMER BRAND stamp.

NOTE the differences in the 3 finger and 4 finger grip on the hammer handle.
I personally use a 3 finger grip.
