I've just acquired my first No. 59s.
"AMERICAN MUNITIONS CO. CHICAGO, ILL."
is imprinted on BOTH bows. Was this
dual labeling standard? I've not noticed
it in any photo.

You will find them marked on one cuff or both, usually on the movable bow. I don't think one is more common than the other.

....is "59" an official model #? I never of these cuffs called that before. Are you referring to the barrel-key or solid-key model?
