Those who study marks, their dates and meanings, have a real challenge in the markings found on Russel Wright designs. I offer them here with what information is currently available or as marks found. In some instances I have only instant photographs (which will not reproduce well) and must add verbally to what is pictured. In the process of preparing this mark section, we learned that there are minute differences in the same mark, even to the signature detail. These are not important, but I call it to your attention for your study.
