THE MODEL 41 & 42 WERE THE FIRST MODEL PRODUCED OF THE MODEL 40 SERIES. THE FIRST MACHINES WERE PRODUCED WITH A WOOD WRINGER PURCHASED OUT AND LATER CHANGED TO IRON FRAME WRINGER ASSEMBLED AT THE MAYTAG COMPANY. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE MODEL 44 ALL MODEL 40 SERIES HAD OVERLAPPING SERIAL NUMBERS STAMPED ON THE LEFT FRONT LEG THE ONLY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MODELS BEING THE POWER SOURCE. THE FOLLOWING SERIAL NUMBERS WOULD, BECAUSE OF THEIR DATES OF PRODUCTION, NECESSARILY BE MODEL 41'S OR MODEL 42'S

ANOTHER 33623 MACHINES WERE PRODUCED BETWEEN APR. 1920 AND SEPT. 1928 WHEN THE MODEL 40 PRODUCTION CEASED.
