Picture 1, on the left, is the '59 flite sweep trunk. It has the smooth
aluminum concentric rings and a recessed >gold-anodized eagle. Picture 2,
on the right, is the '58 flight sweep lid, with the raised chrome eagle on
the >aluminum base, and the radiating ridges on the outer face. I think
there should be a shield, possibly like that >shown on the blue trunk lid
in the '59 prestige brochure on the IML website. I've never seen a '59
that still >has whatever was supposed to be there.
I thought the one on the right was a '58 but I don't know them well enough
to say for sure. Thanx for letting us know. My guess would be that they
had extras left over after the '58 year and used them up before starting the
new '59 design.
