I had thought that the all [[Joystick|Black Beauties]] carried Radio Shack, TDP, or Tandy branding, but [https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/vintage-tandy-tdp-system-100-coco-1844425035 this Worthpoint page] shows what looks like '''unbranded''' Black Beauties. They're bundled with a [[TDP-100]] at that page; since TDP 100s usually came with a couple of Black Beauties bundled in, maybe these were the joysticks that actually came with that computer, and reflected a phase in production where the joysticks didn't yet have TDP branding. Also of note is that they have the more desirable metal sticks. I've never seen non-Radio Shack branded Black Beauties with metal sticks.
