[TR] new acquisition part 2 of 2

[DAVE HOGYE]

Correction. I see that there is a threaded stud with a nut and washer connecting the cover pull to the front of the ash tray along with two alignment pegs.  So the pegs do not attached the cover as I had thought.  In any event, having the cover pull still in place after so many decades must be unusual.  I have three used trays that are missing the cover pull.
