    Are you saying that these stamps are on both leather lengths/sections of the sling, in that one stamp is on the long leather sling length and one on the short section or are they on both on only one section? If on both, it means the leather sections may be from two different slings.
    I have to admit that I was getting confused between your posts and the OP's. Ray
