It finally came to me!! I have a good memory but it's short!!
The Anvil brand was the # 300 series. Since they were all three blades the three sizes from large to small were #'s 303, 302, and 301 for the small baby. Now I'm thing and it is possible we did make some two blade Andvils! We made so many dam knives through the years it's almost impossible to remember them all...I'm doing the best I can folks!!
Honesty is always the best policy!
