[[File:VanRoyBard15.jpg|thumb|Courtesy Doug Valitchka]]The stem logo for VanRoy was a fleur de lis, originally filled, and the pipes were marked as patent pending for the early ajustomatics.  In 1949 the pipes began to carry a patented stamp, with the 2461905 patent number representing the 1949 patenting of the ajustomatic feature, as well as a stamp stating "Magic Cake", but no fleur de lis was on the stems.  After 1953, pipes have been seen with a fleur de lis again on the stem, but an open design, not a filled one.
