Hello everyone!

I have an SLQ which I would like to know the date for. I heard you can tell a 1916 apart from a 1917 by certain features.
Thanks,
Mark

1917. 1916's don't have rivets on the shield like that.

Plus, the fold on the drapery is wrong.

Like Fade said, the distinct shield rivets almost guarantee this is a 1917.

Also, the crease in the drapery below the arm should extend all the way to the pedestal on a 1916.

That one is even better! I can see the words (I'm colorblind) in white versus the red. Thanks murrellington!
