1950 WE 500

[Vern P]

Wale visiting in West Texas, I found a WE 1950 500 with dial blank, all date matching, for $32 !  The collector we were visiting has a date matching 1950 500, with dial. The odd part is, it has "clear" plungers.  The way it felt and looks, it has never been opened.   Sorry I don't remember how to post pictures on here.

The earliest ones did indeed have clear plungers.  I think 51 is when that ended.

My 12/50 500 has black plungers.

Maybe that change came about in mid 1950?
