I think we covered this some time back and they are replacement hammers. There were a number of companies making replacement parts that are not listed in Riesch's book.

thanks. they are not M2 cut on the reverse.

The hammers were made by Kal Machine Works. The two marked I.K. were intended for Inland. The one with the R stamped over the I, now reading R K. was redirected to Rock-Ola from Kal.

These were made directly for Rock-ola? RK being marked after production and sent to R?
