Does anyone know when they switched from the all red to the 2 tone?

The 81A was all red and only produced in 1955, so they switched shortly after that.

There is a listing of Vendo serial numbers by model in the download area.  ...
Tim

I've seen references to the "download area" before, can someone explain where that is?  I thought that might be a secret area through the main Home page but I always get an error when I try to log in from there. I'd be interested in finding out how to decode the dates from the serial numbers, although mines pretty scratched up to clearly read it.

And for what it's worth, I have an early V-39 with the regular 4-hole tag on the side and I did NOT find the extra 2 holes above the compressor area either.
