The RCA Victor Color badge is below the toob on the left side of the mask... there was a pic of it on the bottom of page 3 where I repainted the lettering.

The Nipper logo and New Vista lettering was on a plate where the channel indicator is now. The front mask that you see in the photo was a donor from the metal set. It did not use the fancier tuner with the channel number drum. When I changed all the parts around, I had to remove the little plate from the mask in order to see the channel numbers. The reason I didn't use the mask from the wooden set was because there was lots of corrosion on it and didn't look as nice.

You're quite observant, Chad. i would have never noticed the little dog was missing.
