The only way to physically distinguish 1936-1942 from 1942-1946 is the disappearance of the socket-flange bail holder in 1942. I still believe that regular production ended in 1946 except for special orders like this. In 1936 the LW and other Dietz cold blasts with straight tubes were fitted with the Streamline crown and PACMAN pull ring you see here, along with the USA fill cap. Thanks for showing it!
