Edward L. Parsons, Jr.John,
I have one similar to yours, marked with name & location, movement and dial. Similar tu-tone damaskeening too.
I don't know the production figures, but I have the impression PL's are uncommon but not "rare," in the 18-size Bunn Specials anyway.

Joseph W. RobinsonHi Fellas,
Don't know if private labels on 18s Bunns were common or not. Here's a link to my c1902 21J Bunn Special, Private Label Wm. G. Earle Phil, PA with sn 1632853
