Description:
From somewhere:
"The first digit of serial number indicates the year of production (4 means 1964), followed by model number (2 or 3 digits), followed by the machine's s/n of 6 digits"
This piece came quite damaged, but fixed it pretty well. I even removed the faux cover of the case just to scrub it clean.
It was a great experience to fix this one!

RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Consul Comet on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Consul Serial Number page and the Consul Comet By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
