Looks like that could be from a B-36.

Bill,
Not sure which one you refer to. I am pretty sure all of these are WWII manufacture, except for the one with 38%.

Yup... the three dial one is definitely B-36. What does the one from the second image come from (the large one which goes from 0% to D in 10 degree steps). That looks pretty cool to me. Thanks for showing them John.

Cheers,
Richard
