Beginning at 6 o`clock reading counter-clockwise

GMC then small triangle very small N

above. then 574L then small triangle.then 16 and

another triangle. then B at 12 o`clock.


Beginning at 9 o`clock reading clockwise 75 then DEC

Here is what I think I know:

GMC 574L--Case Maker--General Motors Corp. Lot #574L
Triangle Marks--Inspectors Marks
75--75mm Case
DEC--Unknown
B--Loading Facility (Who is this)

Can anyone add to this or correct my mistakes
