The BOL changers were in pre-WW2 models, 1941 and 1942 models. Probably didn't catch on after a year of marketing.
Not picked up after war-prod stopped for Philco in 46 model year. Standard crystal pickups on changers from then on.

May have been a marketing strategy for boosting sales with a new "concept."
