Wow!  I didn't realize the choice would be so hard.   It looks as if I was
way wrong on the 44 also.   I really thought that plow came out in the late
1930s.  A couple of questions:

1 - Is there a rhyme and reason to the numbers?  In other words, does a
"4B" tell me something different than a "52" - other than its different (-;
2 - When you mention integral plows, I assume you mean the hydraulically
raised and the 3 point carried plows.

My criterion includes staying away from two way plows and integral plows.
Trailer plows are much handier for a B that doesn't include a rock-shaft or
wet lines (-;  I would really prefer two bottom plows also.  Adding my
original criterion of having to be a plow in production for the 1939 model
year, I am narrowing the list down to:

>4B, 4C - 1935 to 1949
>4D - 1938 to 1949
>52 - 1934 to 1947

Sounds like any of these in 12" bottoms would do the trick.   If anyone
else has some additional data, stories, input, etc I would appreciate
hearing them.
