Lorne WasylishenThank you everyone.
Joseph, this started about 4 years ago, collecting numbers just became part of my morning routine.
The motivation I think is similar to that which leads to a few buildings full of collectibles you see on American Pickers but the here result takes up much less room.
I will put a notice here when I plug in the 18s Cashier case numbers.
One question on the case numbers, I find the lists easier to read without spaces between them, any preference from you guys?

Harry J. Hyaduck Sr.Great job Lorne thank you very much for sharing.

Lorne WasylishenThank you Lindell.
I do have a list of what I call “Canadian #7 Tree Cases” scoured from anywhere I could find them.
My list would already include most if not all numbers on this IHC forum.
Your statement :
“By 1937 the Case 7 dies had been shipped to Canada where they were used to press Canadian Content Cases through the mid-1950s which might be an interesting point to consider” in
Is this Case Correct for this Movement is of much interest.
The cases appear identical except for the pendant and case markings. There was a learning curve in ID’ing cases so a few of the early observations do not note the difference. (It will be a while before I get to posting the 16s gold filled cases on my site).
