Here is the post of WUS where Dr. Ranfft posts about Font Roberts:

Here is the one from eBay that is marked as "Factory D"

What Dr. R. shows is slightly smaller, but there is more than just a passing similarity to the two movements. Hence this is my basis for associating Factory 'D' with Font Roberts.
