I wish I really knew. I have been researching mine and haven't found much information about it. All I could find was that the model 100 was made approximately from 1936 to 1959. Mine belonged to my great grandfather who passed away in the early 60's. There is no model number or serial number on it.
Made from 1936 until 1960.
