Hi all,
I have a 97b I want to be sure of the year on before I move it on. Is it the same B-number system as a 102?
This has B/1 (a B over a number 1) which on a 102 would mean 1937... am I to assume this 97 is also from 1937?
Dating HMV 97b, same date system as a 102?

Yes, the numbering system with the date code prefix is exactly the same.
