In case anybody is wanting to reproduce the -29 battery case I have a nice one with the winged bar and shield on it I would loan for you to copy.

Geoffrey Erdos makes a nice shell in that style. My understanding was the winged bar and shield came into use around 59. Earlier was just the classic bar and shield. Anyone have photos/knowledge of batteries through the ages? ... PerryOriginally posted by Chris Haynes View Post -
I found a beauty wingless bar-and-shield in an alley a coupla years back, 'bout three blocks from home.
I took the hard-to-see pic of the bottom first, as it seems to tell the story.
More pics when I can get my dial-up ISP to allow it.

Cotten - I believe the 54 on the bottom is year of manufacture with the dots around the circle representing passage of time (whether it's a dot a month or not I don't know). Here's a bottom and side view of an original Hummer/K battery I have.Originally posted by T. Cotten View Post
What's on the bottom of the shell you have Chris? ... PerryComment
