Correction. I see that there is a threaded stud with a nut and washer conne=
cting the cover pull to the front of the ash tray along with two alignment =
pegs.  So the pegs do not attached the cover as I had thought.  In any even=
t, having the cover pull still in place after so many decades must be unusu=
al.  I have three used trays that are missing the cover pull.=20
