[R-390] Do B&W manufactured R-388 exist?

Tom & Sandy,

I have an R-388 that was manufactured by Collins and tagged as 
such. However, the original 1950 pre-TM manual that came with it 
was published by Barker and Williamson. I haven't seen a B&W tag on 
an R-388, but I've only seen a dozen or so R-388's in the flesh. 
Perhaps someone like Howard Mills has come across one, if they 
exist. Or, B&W may have just been the contractor of the manual.
