I had learned about the "oops" box here and thought it would be a good place to ask about the stamp on the bottom. I'm wondering if it was associated with a particular machine and/or time period. I know the boxes are often separated from the machines, as mine is. I suppose, too, that like blackside singer attachments and parts could have gone with different machines over a number of years.

Love that machine, I haven't seen one is such great condition before. I have an oops box but by looking really closely at it it looks like the grain of the wood makes it look backwards. I don't have any stamps underneath on my box.
