Ron,

I noticed in your book that the 38-12 was extended into 1939, but up to that point you hadn't seen a 39-12. It seems like the 38-12 was one of the most popular radios of the late '30s judging by how many I've seen. Do you think it could have been possible they carried the same radio over into 1939, but left the model as 38-12 instead of updating it? From the amount of 38-12's I've seen both in person and on ePay, I'd say it could be realistic that they offered this radio for two model seasons.

Tom
