Jap made ones are all curved bridge (but so are early and later US ones) so look for K serial numbers on the BB for jap made ones. All jap ones were chrome aswell (although some will now be painted no doubt).
No baseball logos though.
Ive owned all three types (Jap, US straight and US curved) and bizzarely as most people prefer curved bridge (cos they were stronger) I actually prefer the straight bridge as its the one I remember seeing in a BMX shop in Bangor, North Wales when I was a kid. Therefore its the one I have kept and built.
