Thanks to all the threads on Ferguson dials in IHC, I believe this to be the real thing. And a special thanks for helping me on the purchase decision!

If anyone could help with the correct Ferguson hands, please email the particulars.

I have only seen documentation of the ferguson hands on the very earliest ferguson dials (with the type curved around the center post hole). I question whether the hands would be correct on your dial, until I see documentation otherwise. There are just too many dials around for the # of hands available.
