I have a model 62a, serial number 152979 made in 1942. Is there a way to find out what month it was made? This is new in a picture box, never assembled.  I’ll post pictures as soon as I can take some.

Thanks,

Al

Al,

According to Ned Schwing, it was manufactured in June 1942. Ned used the Polishing Room serialization records to derive the DOM tables in his books.
