[FC] Serial Number

[J R Read_HML]

Maybe that's how they got rid of "old" stock in the '60's - without having 
to discount as last year's model?  Considering the fact that production 
dropped by over 60% from '61 to '62 on Rampsides, could that be conceivably 
possible?  Just a question - I have no information along those lines.
