It actually came out January 1940.

I do not know about the numbers you refer to as I have no documentation indicating their meaning.

The chassis is the same as model 40-195 (10 tubes) and 40-200 (11 tubes). I used to own a 40-201, it was originally a code 122 like yours. The original chassis was not repairable so it ended up with a 40-200 chassis, electronically restored by Ed Locker. Great player, and I really liked its design. I let it go as I had too many consoles.
