Was this one of the early or later prototypes?

I think someone is joking around a bit. Laughing

Fifty8 was wondering:

"... I've always wondered when the vents went horizontal, anyone know?"

...well, those vertical vents only came on the prototypes (1949...) , so they NEVER came in the real production that started in march 1950
