Had i read somewhere that out of the 3 makers of the original AN-J-4 's that Arnoff were the only one that had a single piece back

Saw a lot of Aero’s which at least seemed WW2 issue, plus the famous Poughkeepsie ‘s two button versions...So only Arnoff?
Happy to learn more.
Brice , i have edited my original post as i had missed the important reason off my question

I know my later Poughkeepsie has a 2 piece back and seeing Kens Arnoff has a 2 piece back , am i correct in presuming this could an Aeroleather Beacon ?

Maybe these photos from Crapbay show another Aero version.
single panel back, not scalloped pocket flaps.
Snap fasteners.

That's really nice, good price too, I'd want that sort of money to sell mine, the one on ebay is much nicer condition than mine
I do prefer the two piece back however
