Note the shape of the receiver for the jack handle on RalphG's jack is flat rectangular and not round, this is the typical of the Ford style jack 37-41. An observation on RalphG's jack there is just one locking collar on the shaft extending out just above the handle receiver. This style was changed to two collars next to each other somewhere around 1938. The length of the round shaft was increased in 41. This may or may not be the style of jack used in the LZ in 1939???
