Re: Sousa valve set ID
This certainly looks like a 30's-40's H. N. White (King). However... I don't recall ever seeing a King serial number that started with a letter. The 'C' might be some transitional thing that means 'Cleveland'.
I'm going to stick with 'manufactured by King'. Regardless of the number.

Close enough - an "American Standard" (King), I think.
