It's even possible the only thing broken on the original 41C was just the posts, which would lead them to use a new front.
Well, I think that not every 41C on the shelf was sold as soon as delivered to the shop: maybe this one stayed there for some time before being sold...

However Mr Turnbull (there's a sticker on the back) had to start from a halfnut 41C anyway.
