P-59A Posted November 28, 2017 Share #1 Posted November 28, 2017 This was in an antique store for a few years. I would visit this shop in Lebec Ca. when ever I was working in the central valley. I assumed it was off a BT-13, but the blue didn't add up. Curiosity got the cat and I bought it. After running the prefix number stamped on the latch (25-31810) I was surprised to find it was from a O-47 A. Only 238 were made, so it's not as common as I thought.
