Allow me to apologize for the misspelling of RENOMME in my post above, as I spelled it as it was listed in Wilczak and Colwell's book. I have corrected the entry in my copy.

It was not an uncommon practice for manufactures to sell of surplus stock as "no name" pipes or to produce pipes for a third party as "private label". Hunter's research suggests the latter might be the case here but the source didn't know Stanwell had also been a source. I'd say the difference between the two is within manufacturing tolerances, they're essentially clones.
A beauty, for sure. I was wondering if "renomme" was close to French for "re-named"? Or maybe "renowned"?
