Like many other Fedelcode sirens at the time, there were several different designs just for the Model 1. So far, we know it came with up to five different housing designs, those being:

A 2-louvre design:

A variation of the 3-louvre design:

And a possible 1-louvre design (could just be a modified/damaged model):

I never knew that a Model 1 existed up until this point, let alone that there are variations in the design. That's a +1 karma from me.

The story gets a bit more interesting regarding the Mach. 1…

Based off this advertisement from 1929, there was yet another Model No. 1. This was a “general alarm siren” that shared the same 10 1/2” rotor as the Mach. 3 (pictured right alongside). It is unknown if these were truly 1 horsepower, but given the others (Machs. 3 and 5) match the motor power, it could be assumed this followed suit. This siren however could not be fitted with any coding equipment.

I've also seen what appears to be a Model 2 refered to as the "No. 1" seen in the image below.
It's a shame not much is known about most Fedelcode sirens...
