My '52 Mayfair has four stainless pointed "pop bottle openers" but I'm sure the dealer added the fourth. I DO like the look of the four as it continues the belt line to the rear better, amazingly giving the car a longer look.
I have never seen a Mayfair or Convertible without the "openers", but I suppose it is possible that very early '51's were without them as Packard was famous for their "evolution" of models. I once had a late run # '54 Clipper Deluxe with some Super trim pieces. I was told that some Super trim parts were installed on the late run Deluxes because of an overrun and they wanted to use them up.
