brake booster

Hi all
 just got a Bracket and booter from a 61 Mercury for my 62 wagon.
I'm unable to find any name on the booster
 the one interesting feature to note is that the unit uses screws to hold the sides together.
Anyone have an idea of the manufacuter?
it has a vent that faces forward.
Best

Update
 This is a Miidland-Ross 10 screw booster.
it was a replacment in mid 61 for the thunderbird, from the bendix booster.
Midland is or was more noted for commercial truck brakes and may still be
in business, have not checked.
 the unit is a single diaphram
one is on ebay rebuilt for $700  !!!!!!
I've also seen them fro $340 without core exchange and $190 with exchange.
