Subject: [CR]Titan stems contd.: Oval vs. script

Been meaning to ask this for some time, good opportunity now.

I´ve got several Titan items, some bear a script logo, some have one in an oval. The oval ones have the word "Titan" in a typeface which is non-script, sans serifs, grotesque-ish, Arial-like with a rounded "A".

This to do with them being for the track (oval), or am I hallucinating

after all the festive revelling plus a spell on the rollers? Can´t be

their age; I´ve got both younger and older script ones. The most recent one I´ve got is stamped "78", and this is script as well as the "54"

one. The 78 one is also stamped "LUXE", but is decidedly less nice than

the older ones.
