As you note, it was marked only with the F&H logo and "2.8A" -- at that time, F&H only sold "Bayonet" accessories and "2.8A" accessories. It was not until the advent of the later 3.5C that the term "Bayonet II" was adopted I have always understood that the 2.8A used what later came to be known as the Bayonet II mounting, but canted, as the Baby Grey Bayonet I hoods are canted from those used on Rolleiflex and Rollecord cameras.
