Do you have one or just recall seeing one? I'm still wondering if they were commercially produced.

Of the 21 pioneer case variant above, until yesterday, I had 15, but now 17 in my collection and actively searching for the missing 4 including the 22S recess.

The very late 19BII with the rear door was actually produced in a different color scheme than prior 19BIIs. The case is a darker brown/close to black (similar to the darker case of the late 10B/20S/32SII/17BII) and the keys are also different colors. And the panel on the left above the alpha-keys does not provide the simple help for several key functions, rather it explains how to select the user-language, in several languages, so maybe this late model was only released in a multi-language version.

I was aware of it, but just to sure I just checked with the ones I have, and of course, you are right, as usual.
