J & K Valve History

[Deleted]

Have always heard that the origin of J/K valve names stem from their listing in a catalog, stated, depending on the story, as either USD or Sears? Does anyone have other versions or actually have a catalog where this can be verified?

Try checking on old sherwood-selpac catalogs, I think it comes from the Manufacturer side, not retail. You may even find the answer in current commercial valve companies on the web.
