Yet another sideplate question! (re: 1937 s42)

Hi Dwight,

Thanks for the response.

Your sideplate is interesting. I can't believe the 5 represents the last digit of the serial number. As Bill said above, sideplates observed are a variation of the first two digits (sn, or sn +1 or sn -1) or may be blank.

Your sideplate appears to be the blank variety with the 5 being some extraneous code similar to my 3 and Sidharta's 2.

The plot thickens!
