What is the color of the plastic/bakelite knobs on the accessory bakelite/gear shift knob and accessory emergency handle? Is it kind of a marbled orange color? If now, what year(s) used this marbled looking orange color? This 1936 I understand was a marbled grey. Thanks!

I'm no expert but you are pretty much right. The Marbled orange was correct for 34-35 and marbled gray for 36.

The 1934 accesory shift knob was oarnge
The only other orange in 1934 was the cigar lighter.
There is no hand brake accessory in 1934 or 1935.

Thanks for the quick reply! The hand brake accessory has a marbled orange knob just about identical to the gear shift knob. Both look factory. The orange brake accessory looks the same as the 36 except for the color. What would the hand brake accessory go to do you think?

The 1934 acessory book does not list the parking brake extension.
The 1935 parts book lists it for 1935 only.
It may work on a 1934 but would be considered incorrect for VCCA judging.

I bought one for my 34 Master. Looked like it would work but I could never get it to.

My 1935 Accessory Catalog shows the hand brake extension with Catalin knob.

Thanks for everyone's valuable input. Yep, that must be it - I have the 34-35 gearshift knob and the 35 accessory brake handle. I have a 36 and they look good on it (it works fine), although I know incorrect. But it is nowhere close to being a show car, at least for VCCA or AACA standards - a driver for fun.
