@Don McErlean  They are actually two different loco's and tenders , both made by Jouet de Paris ( France ) in the 20's and 30's

Nowadays we know them as JEP , but they were earlier trademarked as JP, JdeP  then JDP ( with the D still being a capital but smaller than the J and P) ... then JEP

Jouet de Paris was formed in 1902 .

In France at the time there was also S.I.F. , The Societie Industrielle de Flerblanterie which was created by merging many smaller tinsmith companies into the one umbrella as a co-operative in 1899 and about 1909 they merged further incorporating Jouet de Paris under the wing , but the toys made by the JdP firm were still labelled as JdP etc

It is not uncommon to see very early tenders,carriages etc marked S.I.F.
