We've still got to work out how the hinge arms/braces are going to be classified on this model, but I was lucky enough to pickup another ftbpw without the vent-hole. These two have got different hinge arms/braces so another one to add to the table hopefully at some point.

For years and years, I had one in my display that was quite unusual. The garbage box was a brownish beige-gray color that was very close the the color of the first issue of the 38a. It was not repainted and was all original. It's new owner is someone who is quite private with his collection.
It might be time to start my "Bucket List."

Hello Antonin, yes I have all four (4) of those variations of the 15c with-out the peephole.

Hello John when referring to the three (3) different thickness of the arms, then you could also refer to the widths of the three (3) different braces,

Very thin brace.

Thin Brace these two different width braces are on the same model, variation # 1.

Thick brace.

The only trouble collecting the variations as in Stannards is the braces he does not list. :( :x

Also the three different thickness of the hinge, as John did mention in an earlier post.
