[Tigers] jacks

Hello
 
More on tools.
Years ago, visiting friends in Berkeley CA, I stopped at a junk  yard, 
rummaged through a junk Alpine they had in a pile, found a jack and  brought it 
home.
Recently, I was refinishing it to put in my rehabbed trunk and found the  
Alpine jack to be approx. 3 inches or so shorter than my original Mk. 1A  
jack.
 
Did Mk 1s have this shorter jack, or just Alpines or what?
 
Best to all,
