Special Notes: This is likely a retooling of the mold created to produce the LBFS1 discs. ® was added to the name "Frisbee" on the top after Wham-O had just received registration approval. The Wham-O address information replaced the Canadian address on the LBFS1 in a slightly bolder typeface. Fred Morrison's newly acquired Design Patent was added to the bottom along with the mold number 3. The top of the R in the Small ® overlaps the circle. From the Collection of Dave Bolyard, disc enthusiast.
