Thanks everyone....I try to get the details right on all my calls........Of course the only things I won't do since I'm not looking to make forgeries are the markings....I believe he probably had a "roll stamp" made for his calls and also a real Perdew will have square pins......I think they are called "clinch nails"......not sure......other than that I'm pretty close...

Do the pins on the original go all the way through Joe?

Don't believe so.  There are three though. Let me tell you it is a PIA to hold that piece of metal and pin it. Finally ore drilled and did it that way.  Definitely a three handed job.
