Here is the second example. Any information as to why this one is different is much appreciated. Thank you for all of your help!

[MAP]

There are 30 plus makers of PAB's. And multiple variations each by most of these makers. All in there are probably over 100 known variations.

Quality photos are key as I noted in your other thread. Based on what I see......it might be an unmarked flat back zinc Wurster using the 3rd type die.

But....I'm a bit rusty on these, having stopped collecting them. As such.....happy to stand corrected.


Edit.........I stand corrected...My eyes are failing.......

It is a zinc "small W" Wurster. I missed the "W" in the upper left corner. Known as the type 1.2.4b Small "w" variant. Still using the 3rd type die.

A nice example. While not "rare", I understand it is less common. Value is reduced given the broken catch

I like it!

I'm inclined to agree with Michael.

I see that it has a small "W" to the left of the catch so, it is a small "W" Wurster.
