Unusual Way to Mark a 425A Network ?

[Dan/Panther]

Has anyone ever seen a network marked like this one ?

It may of had a paper sticker, I have seen a lot of networks with paper stickers, I always assumed they covered up previous markings. I have never felt the need to remove the stickers.

Yes, I have.  Several.  They were marked that way in the early days.  Maybe into 1953 from the ones I've had.

That is certainly an unusual way to spell "network"

I have a 52 500 with the paper label on it, I have always wondered what was under there.  Probably nothing.

I'm not a gambling man, I will stick with a safe bet of there's nothing and it's a 52 phone since everything else is dated 52 on it.

I've had one paper label just fall off and I have it tucked in between dial and network areas.  The network legend underneath is marked as it should be, no different from what's on the paper label, and is dated 1/53.  Another phone has a paper label that doesn't want to come off completely.  I can see the network legend underneath a section of the paper that I am able to lift away, but can't uncover the part stuck to where the date is located.  I wish I could find out what the network date is, but I'm fairly sure it's close to the rest of the components on the base.

I'd be interested to know what the logic was behind the paper labels, particularly since my experience is that their legend is no different from what's been painted on the network already.

That's ok.  I should start spelling some of mine Notwork...

What model set is it on, D/P?  The only set I have that has a network marked like yours is a 500T.  My 12/50 500 has the terminal template stamped on the side in yellow.  My '52 A/B has the paper label with the template markings.  I don't know what's behind the label.
