Yes, I noticed that. Also I have that plate on the front of mine and yours doesn't. It's very interesting how these machines differ.

I just acquired a 301A with serial number NB041442, all the serial number sight gives is 1956, which happens to be my birth year, but no other information. Is there a way to get more detail? or is this some of the information that was lost? thanks for the assist!

Not often I see these wonderful old Pfaffs available. This one is looks to be in great shape in a blond cabinet. Hesston KS is about 45 min north of Wichita.
