Difference between 68 and 69 hurst shifter handle

The picture in post #6 shows 2 "HURST" stampings. The one on the right is a 68.
My guess is Chrysler decided they had to move away from Inland cause they were junk! BTDT. A rush deal was made with Hurst to start producing handles and shifters mid year and the name stamping was done as fast as possible using a generic font without the fancier dedicated tooling.
