I found a pair of modern/abstract figures with Raymor tags and "602 Italy" markings. The Raymor tags are stamped "303 TUD 308 TUD" and "306 TUD 306 TUD".I've seen a few dealers describe these as Aldo Londi designs, usually with an estimated date in the late 60s. I'm hoping someone has seen a reliable attribution, perhaps in an old Raymor catalog, and might help me fix a date to these. Thanks much.

Very similar to the pieces in this video:

Wow, that's great! Londi it is! The figures are slightly different, but I suppose these were just part of a commercial run of his design.
I've attached some additional photos of the Raymor labels in any case. The TUD numbers are 306 and 308. One of them also wears a what looks like a late-60s/early-70s era tag from the defunct Donaldson's department store of Minneapolis.
