Notes:

 

The word ‘Perfect’ was added about 1912 and dropped when logo 5 was introduced.  ‘C/O’ stands for cup-and-ounce markings, ‘med’ stands for the sculptured fruit medallion that was put on the reverse, the ® is the registration mark that was added just below the logo and ‘met’ stands for metric graduations placed on the opposite side of the cup-and-ounce markings.
