Big difference, limb design is straighter and off white glass. The Sow Belly was the same but had a convexed window on the belly side. The regular was concaved like the 57.

I was under the impression from other previous threads that there was also a 57 with white glass (that does NOT have the Sow Belly). I have one of these that's 64" and 48#.

Is this really an early 58 that preceded the Sow Belly version?
