![]() the Peoria for RR service have engraved cocks like above
Superior grade or quality is an argument (see nat ass MB several yrs ago)--I know those that THINK they have one (unmarked), don't. I have an unmarled one that IS superior to all I have seen. Therefore, I believe this was a sales hype at time of production and ther PG and collectors have created their own definitions as to what is really superior
