Man! Did I ever find a camera that can do close-ups! A brief description of each is following. Dwight, there are no numbers stamped on the bottoms edges of either the plate or lever. However, on the back-center of the plate is a "6" or "9", and also on the back near the rear edge is the number"57".
...and once again, I appreciate your taking an interest in this.
