Actually there are 2 photos of what appears to be a BC-442 with a white meter -- Figure 1, page x; and Figure 45, page 23.
Years ago I made a complete photocopy of an original SCR-274N manual. Will have to dig that out and compare the pictures to be sure.
In truth, "th' 'lectric'ty don't care." But if it did exist, it'd be a nice collector find.

If you're referring to T.O. 08-10-50
dated February 15, 1943, Figure 1 page
x clearly shows a black faced meter in the BC-442-A.
