What was the rollout year for the BC-9, was it '21
or '22 ?

The tag on the one here was originally for BC-9,
order date Dec. of 1921,
later over-stamped for -9A.  Earliest tag I've
seen.
Somewhere, I have seen that the earliest versions
were ordered
right after the end of WWI.  It cannot be earlier
than 1919,
because that's when the Western Electric VT-1
became available.
I can't seem to find the documentation. Will look
more later.
