I think it is somewhat odd that the 1936 is straight-lined where the 1937 is all curved-lined...

In 1937 and subsequent years, the fonts were more curved. Maybe it had to do with designing a roll die that would work well on a curved surface. Or perhaps the curved numbers caused less wear. But, in any case, that's the way it was. John |
