Trico Wiper Blade Question

[Wayne H.]

I bought a nice set of Trico 'Made in USA' wiper blades for my '67 from a vendor at a swap meet a few months ago.
I finally got around to installing the inserts and putting them on the car. I noticed that the left blade has the imprint facing down and the 'Made in USA' imprint on the right blade is facing up [upside down].

Question: Did these blades come in sets of left and rights, or were they all the same?

Interchangeable...

So 'interchangeable' means the blades were all stamped the same, as in the picture. And, when placed on the car, the passenger side blade has the stamp upside down.

Now, that's a different question. Your initial post was asking about "blades". Your picture is showing blade holders. I will be corrected if wrong, but I believe there was no particular designation for driver side and passenger side blade holders...should all be the same.

Thanks Leif, I think you are right. I did a search of all blade holders of this type on the internet, and all of them had the same print orientation; so I guess that when installed, the one holder shows the letters upside down the other blade holder has the letters right side up.
