The company is Sangamo.
In some type fonts, the letters have very distinct serifs, I think
they are called. The little hang-downy things on the top of a capital
"T", and the little upside down "T" shaped feet on the bottoms of lower
case "n", "i", "k", "p", "f", and their ilk.
If the ink is thin at the top of a lower case "n", the serifs can be
mistaken, by optical recognition software (OCR), as being the bottom
of a "u".
OCR software is typically made so it can guess at any type font, and
it is generally willing to switch font types between letters, without
worrying at all.

Just to be clear, is this company called Saugamo or Sangamo? I
remember Sangamo very well, a well established maker of capacitors
and watthour meters. I never heard of Saugamo. Is Saugamo a mis
spelling or mistyping of Sangamo or a separate company or a changed
name or what? Some precision here would be appreciated.

hi,
That .pdf is helpful, .... but incomplete.
Likely the particular Saugamo Electric Co. data I need might
be dated after 1960 ,
--- possibly into the 1970'a
Example:
" CM158300J " printed in * Black ink * No colored Dots
on the packages !
thanks !
