Yesterday afternoon this joined my collection. It is a CAMILLUS (1047), 3 blades, a swelled center, white handles, a long line tang stamp, no pattern # stamp, 3 5/8" closed, Boy Scout "whittler" pocket knife. This is only my second CAMILLUS (1047) that has white handles. It did need some very minor cleaning. But more importantly, there are NO CRACKS anywhere on the handles. I took some pictures and here it is.
Caption(s), if any, are on the BOTTOM of the corresponding picture(s).

A super find skip. Especially to find one without a crack near the shield.

Thank you Smitty.
Two of the blades have minor issues.
But, considering what I paid for it, I do not have any complaints.

Picked this one up from one of our AAPK members yesterday. It's a beautiful middle size pocket knife
with rich bone color. Very tight with a lot of snap still in it.

In continuation of my post of Feb 21, 2020 12:01 am.
The latest version of the #1885 knife by Camillus.
It seems to me that the marking stamp had excessive wear.

Vit, Great seeing you here and posting . Nice #1885
You think the stamp itself was wore out ? That would explain why your tang stamp looks like that . Very interesting.

And thanks to everyone for the feedback
