Harris, How many times are you going to keep posting the same pictures.
Time to take some new ones.

I got this one a month ago.  A little RRR, and a Zav handle later, she looks pretty good.  Pat pending, BTW.  Is it just me, or is the lid vent crazy close to the handle strap?  It almost rubs.

@Grillagin  - Can't get any closer without overlapping. Must have have been produced on a Monday. The A180 engraved in the porcelain is probably from the "Operation ID" crime prevention program in the 70's & 80's.

@Cellar2ful, That's what I was thinking.  And yep, the seller's DL# is etched into the lid.  I remember when that was the thing to do.

Seriously?!?!  A driver license number etched into the lid?
Looking for: Red MBH 26"(The Aristocrat), Chestnut-coppertone (The Estate), Glen-blue (The Imperial), and The Plainsman.

With the help of @CatskillSmoker, my brother was able to grab this 18" for me. The legs are on wrong but I may leave it that way since it has probably been like that since first assembled.

Interesting. My dad's tools and some of his other items (pocket knife, leatherman, etc.) all have his DL engraved into them. Some are even his old number from the early 1970's (before California added a few numerical digits).
