My '59 Bugeye windshield has a white-outlined rectangle in the center. In it
is a little heart with a squiggly cross in it. The rectangle also has the
name "Royal Doulton" and "laminated". I think our fine china is Royal
Daulton. Probably a separate division, huh ;7). Don't know if this is
original, but I have no reason to believe that it is not.
