Yeah, they look similar. Funny I had the exact same page up on my other computer that you linked.

I am told that the Bryant breakers may be the ones that I need. Still not sure. Maybe I can post a pic tonight when I get back.
 
Sylvania, that sounds like the Zinsco type for sure. You can get those Connecticut Electric Zinsco replacement breakers at HD.
 
Here are some photos.

Those are Zinscos, all right. Now I know where they got the face design for Murray and Siemens breakers.
 
That is a predecessor to Challenger so look for info if C-H BR is OK for use in it, if my memory is correct it was a Zinsco/American Switch prior to being branded as Sylvania by GTE.

The "face design" was a redesign by Gould Inc. after they bought the I-T-E Imperial Corp. in 1976, Siemens came into the picture about 1984 & they chose to use the I-T-E design EQ frame breakers rebranded as Murray type MP when they bought the Murray/Crouse-Hinds line from Cooper.

Inhale! :D
 
I ended up installing a Murray MP2020N. That panel just plain sucks. I cannot believe how many of the breakers were actually installed.
