The original SB brass plates were embossed. Even if the paint wore off, the data is still there. Either SB stamped the plates or rolled them though a die prior to coloring them.

I can see on the original plate the letters are raised a bit. Randy
told me the raised letters are produced with acid and then screen

Bend that would know where they were made originally? In house?
