Well, if people like to mix those film backs, then all you have said has no use...Another visible clue to the later backs (with lock tabs) is the locks for the inserts has the small arrow in a circle .
This should make a search easier if the serial numbers aren't visible . Peter
All very helpful, thanks.So as a follow up , the two backs on the left have a serial # starting with 35 . The right arrow indicates the tab that locks the dark slides that have a small notch . The tab on the
left hand side is also metal instead of plastic , as on the right hand back with serial # starting with 31 . The dark slides without the notch fit well in both backs , but don't lock with
the backs off , so be careful.
Hanging out here to clear hangover is not so bad though^ Thanks , and I must mention that I incorrectly stated the serial #'s , the newer backs started with the #83 and the earlier ones ( without the dark slide locking tab) started with the #81.
Something to do with New Years, Peter
All great stuff. The interesting part is that as parts can be swapped without visible clues they were, given the age of them, there is a high chance of finding many that are no longer with originally designated parts. All his helps figure out what to watch out for.Another visible clue to the later backs (with lock tabs) is the locks for the film inserts has the small arrow in a circle .
