Ever seen a "suPerForm" Pat. Pend. Bar before??

Post by Torey Harding »

Hey! Has anyone ever seen a suPerForm PAT. PEND. bar before?

I got it in a case of an old lap steel. Trying to figure out whether the bar is old, and if so, from what era?

Thanks for the help!

I can't recall seeing one of those - but I find the knurled design of the bullet tip to be an interesting idea.
