David,

Look at the right hand end of crate in the foreground, the Norton stencil is used, but not spraying "Norton" in. From the lettering on the other side, BSA was on a separate stencil. No posing, just using one stencil for both.

I am certain, these are new BSA's that are being dismantled for crating.
