The Ford Barn

When my generator went kaput on our first club tour of the season, I acquired another L2 generator with a rebuild tag. Looks old, and says, “ALLANSON ARMATURE MFG. CO. LTD. 21 MCCAUL ST. TORONTO, CAN”.
It also has “A 10000 D” (should be B?) stamped above “ORIGINAL NUMBER”.
I personally find these old tags an interesting piece of history, but makes me curious if they would be a deduction in Fine Point?
Anyone else have photos of these old generator rebuild tags?

It would be a deduction if fine point because that's not how it was made. I have an engine that came in my 29 Tudor that has a rebuild tag riveted into the block from Ford in Fargo, ND.
