It's an old Lodge.

I think this was probably made for Willard Wallace of Walla Walla, Washington. [smiley=wobble.gif]


I would use the term molders mark, which is what I think you are saying.

There have been a couple of explanations/uses for the marks.  One is quality control.  Another is that they may have been paid on a per piece basis.  I'm sure there are others.
