[R-390] ATC Items - was Contract List

Wed, 31 Dec 2003 15:08:35 -0600

The front panel on the frame I'm restoring also had a serial number written
in pencil where the tag goes.  It was painted over with some clear enamel or
clear lacquer to preserve it.

Barry,
        Yep, the panel came with a tag and the # was under the tag, in
pencil.
