I have done a search on the web for Reed and Prince Screwdrivers with little success.
Sears sells R/P screwdrivers: http://tinyurl.com/68ncm
McMaster-Carr sells R/P bits for drivers (see Frearson): http://tinyurl.com/4gxqp
Grainger supposedly sells the bits, too, but their lousy web site doesn't like my browser, so I don't have an URL for you.
However, I was mainly trying to find out how they differ from Philips and therefore whether or not these are Philips or not.
Look at the illustration at the top of that McMaster page and one difference will be obvious. Also, the sides of the slots in a Reed and Prince screw head are cut at a different angle.
