I have a few fishing/camping collectibles from HSB&Co (which became True Value)
On the wall, though, I have a framed catalog page with a bike branded OVB.
They sold bikes as OVB (our very best)

I also have a set of Rev-O-Noc nesting camp cups

True Value trademark originated in 1932

ps, I'm not going to venture guessing bike makers, but if you find a fishing reel, I can tell you who made it...:cool:
