Circle F brand was very popular in the area I live in. They were still in business in the late 70's early 80's. I took out a lot of those two prongers back when I rewired houses, some had 15� price stickers still on them.

Few things are harder to put up with than the annoyance of a good example.

I note that they are polarized for the parallel-blade configuration.
