NOTE from Eric's site; According to Jim Perrin's tool kit articles 356 Registry Vol. 23 #1 p.17 and Vol.24 #1 p.38 the "D.P. angem" marking on the lug wrench is correct up through 1956, and then it was changed to "D.B.P." in 1957.
NOTE according to James Davies, A note on the D.B.Angem marking: the 1953 and earlier wrenches don't have "GERMANY" stamped before D.P.Angem. By 1955, they do, according to Jim Perrin's reporting on the original 1955 kits.
​
REGARDLESS of the above notes, the patent was issued to Hazet on June 3, 1954, and most likely the change did not appear until the previous stock was used up. Hazet did not change their items to correspond with Porsche Model changes, so there is no "definitive" change, only "suggested changes"
