Could anybody tell me what the difference is between "straight cross" and "hump cross"?
Also has anybody ever seen the "Y" for York missing on "oneida community, N.Y." I have one that says "oneida community, N"

Hump cross means theres a hump built in the cross on pan side. The hump holds the pan on the trap letting it hold the jaw down when setting. Your missing Y is quite common. Even fresh struck pans can have letters missing as the die wears out.
