Interesting Logo on TOC Wood Wheel Set

[Handyman]

Hi Cabers,
I have a wood TOC wheelset with a stamp or logo on the wheel that I've never seen before. I can read "Wood, Rims , 1 1/2", and Ohio" but the other writing is hidden by the black paint stripping on the wheels........................Does anyone recognize the manufacturer? Pete in Fitchburg

I think it says Marietta, Ohio which could mean it was made by Lobdell. A posting here on CABE has an ad showing same label.

It was not uncommon for wheel manufacturers to have a seal of approval and a logo to advertise their product so people can Identify and purchase again.
Wood wheels seem generic in a sense, but they absolutely are not. Different makers held different profiles, and mechanical designs.

that being said, the logo on those wheels is a very appealing piece of calligraphy style work.
