Got one a lot like that on my wall. Is it brown? That would be some pretty old BP shit.

I'd say post 1960s.

I believe its older than that, My great grandpa died in the 1970s, my grandpa who was born in 1943 remembers hunting rabbits with it in England, and they moved in the early 50s.

Correction, not the manufacturer so much as a standard.
