Sorry, kindof a trivia question, but when did Lyman stop using the Ideal name on it's molds? Basically picked up a couple Ideal molds and am curious as to how old they are...

I am really curious because the one looks darn near brand new!

brockj:

Tom Griffin at Lyman tells me that the old shop records indicate the mould stamp was changed from "IDEAL" to "LYMAN" about 1967.
