One more to the mix, pure patina..." fenders? we don't need no stinkin' fenders"
 
57 spitfire,

I have always read that it was 2 years - 1936 and 1937.

I think mine may both be 1937.

I do not want to hijack this into a Colson post but here are picture's of the serial number on mine.

I have read that the numeral/alphabet combo corresponded to year and month. In my examples D7 - April 1937, I7 Sept 1937.

The other characters are a combination of serial numbers, frame maker and possible a code for the company the frame was being made for.
