Can anyone tell me, were all tuf neck stems engraved with the logo or did some have stickers with the lions head etc.
Thanks

Very early tuf necks were non stamped no markings at all , square corners, then the stamp said TUF NECK still sqaure cornered , changed the stamp to Tiger head and rounded the corners, then stopped stamping and used the screen print " Sticker".
Or something like that.

Yep rich is spot on here as i have an unstamped one and they are hard to fake due to the thread used in the wedge bold etc. Tuf neck were making stems for years before they started putting the stamp on them!
Pitty we are all label junkies as the unstamped ones are rarer and therefore should cost more but they dont
