Hi All,

 

I would your opinion regarding the authenicity of the nameplate pictured. To my knowledge, real nameplates would have a black background with silver/white letters. This one is just a plain plate with the stampings. I noticed the contract date is early 1942. Could this be an early nameplate?

I have never seen an original BC-721 data plate so I'm not sure about this one. But notice how beat up the screws are compared to the rest of the unit. It looks like the radio has been restored using parts from several units. That might account for the worn look to the data plate.
