If I recall correctly, column shift on a 1939 Twelve was an expensive option due to the design of the trans which dated back to 1932. I more regularly see cane shift in the '39 Twelves than column.

I'm going to look up the production estimates in the '38 and '39 Twelve 2-4 pass coupes, will update here later.
