Robert McClellandLarry, these are the models according to the information I have found.
Models with only 4 foot dials: 960P, 961, 962, 963, 964, 965, 966, 967, 968, 969, 970, 971, 973P, 976P, 977P, 991L
Models with both 4 & 3 foot dials: 950, 952L, 954, 960L, 972L&P, 973L, 974L&P, 975L&P, 978, 990L, 992L, 993L
The transition from 4 foot to 3 occurred between mid-1911 until late 1915 with most happening in 1912 and 1913.

Harry J. Hyaduck Sr.Larry to my knowledge all 16s Hamilton's before serial number 875000 (this is a rough estimate as the different models may have been slightly higher serial number) were 4 post dials.
