Re: Frank L. Kaspar & Frank Kaspar

As indicated in the Fobes article - both Kaspars apparently worked together for a while in Chicago before the elder moved to Ann Arbor and the younger to Cicero and at that time it is anyone's guess who put what logo on what mouthpiece. According to Clark the Frank L. Kaspar logo is a product of the elder in Ann Arbor but again I cannot really answer your question but perhaps the experts on Kaspar mouthpieces - e.g. Clark Fobes, Gregory Smith and others can shed some light. The number of lines down is a byproduct of the blanks used which were variable due to availability and time.
