I believe you are absolutely correct Pete. I guess I jumped on the 1929 Swiss answer because there were so many more '29s produced than the 06/24 3rd Series, so a sideplate would be easier to come by. Also the "island" on the side plate of a 06/24 3rd is slightly narrower than a '29, and it appears that in addition to the wider extension the sideplate in question also is of the narrow island type. Good eye lad.
