I'm not sure where you've got hung up on this matter of the max rpms being printed. The letters "R.P.M." are printed out at the end of the blank line, but those plates were used for all tractors being produced in the plant at any given time, and the actual number for the rpms was stamped in. Most tags I've seen, the model and seral # info was machine stamped. The rpm numbers usually look to be stamped by hand. They are in smaller characters than the other two lines, and they are rarely well-aligned, are struck to different depths . . . If you look at the picture somebody posted on your original request, it looks almost as if the 1 was struck with one stamp, and the 600 with another single stamp to make 1600. On the tag on one of my trators, it's very plain that the 15 was struck with one single stamp and the 40 with a different one to make 1540 In both cases only "R.P.M." is printed on the plate.
