The vast majority of the original bolts on my 1933 Plymouth are marked with "DB" in a circle.

It is my guess that the DB stands for "Dodge Brothers" and that the bolts were manufactured by Chrysler using tooling acquired when it bought Dodge. I am also guessing that identically marked bolts were used on Dodge Brothers vehicles.

Are my guesses correct?

Does the Dodge Brothers Club have a source for bolts with that marking?

you are right about the DB bolts, If you find an original Dodge Brothers, you will find that the bolts will have the DB markings.
