The clog on the left has the words  Royal Goedewaagen on it, but somtimes it has  "Koninklijk" Goedewaagen on it. It both means the same. "Koninklijk" is just the Dutch word for "Royal". It relates to  recognition received by Goedewaagen from the  reigning Queen at the time. Also the word Royal was probably added to those items destined for export. The clog on the right has none of these words, it seems quite random.
The decor on the orange clog is called Arba, it was first presented in 1933 on the Utrecht and Leipzig trade fair. The name is not written as part of the mark but at the time it was sold a sticker with the word Arba-1 was present. The orange colour (paint with uranium oxide) is the most common one.
