Can anyone tell me when this lettering scheme first appeared on 57' reefers. All I have is Microscale decal set 60-1356 as a reference:

Hmm... I'm guessing 1920...

Two scientists create a teleportation ray, and they try it out on a cricket. They put the cricket on one of the two teleportation pads in the room, and they turn the ray on.
The cricket jumps across the room onto the other pad.
"It works! It works!"

There is a retired PFE car painter on Facebook who told me that the SP logo was whatever spare paint laying around...that's why you will see green or blue logos
