Anyone recognize this dropout?

It's the front, left side dropout on my Raleigh Gran Sport. I was thinking simplex, but I have no idea. The strange thing is, only the left side has a marking while the right side is totally flat.

Great, thanks for confirming that. I wonder if the right side dropout is the same but with no marking. Who knows, I just chalk it up to Raleigh being Raleigh.

Thanks Anthony

Did you look on the inside of the right dropout for the "S"? Just a guess.
