Dan,
The letters the original red lens of my TD lamps say King of the
Road, in the outer ring around the lion rampant that is in the center
circle. They are reasonably crisp and legible on one lamp, and getting
faint on the other.
A call to Moss would determine if the style you have is what they
offer these days.
Were the ones sold to you in a box that appeared to be original?
