The other one does have one, but it's 2-3 years newer than this frame. The transition to most models having head badges seems to have been in the mid-50s. All of the older frames except top models like the Flyer and Continental appear to have lacked head badges in most cases into the early '50s, based on a couple of dozen frames I've seen. Here are three more Super Pythons of this generation that apparently all lacked head badges.

I was very tempted to purchase all three of these frames as they appeared on eBay over the last couple of years as they were all 23" frames and I was pretty doubtful that I'd ever see such a large one come up again. I'm glad I held out!
