The Ford Barn

Hello,
I bought 4 wheels for my '50 F-1 panel. 3 of the wheels were from the same truck(Same color, blue). The 4th. wheel appeared to have been painted black originally. I found something interesting when I was prepping them for paint.
The 3 wheels that are the same, all are stamped FoMoCo, I am familiar with that logo. The oddball wheel is stamped with the Ford script. I am thinking the Ford script is older than the the FoMoCo, am I right? The wheels all are similar with the exception of the Script versus fomoco and the center lugs are different the script wheel is a Innie, the lug holes are recessed, where as the fomoco wheels are outies, lol .. the lug holes are raised.
Another question is, when did they go from the script logo to the fomoco? Thanks for any info.

Please ask in the early V8 forum, this section if for questions about the site not car questions. While some look, few reply.
