It's an early 36 clock mirror. The face stayed black until around May of 36 when the face changed to brown to match the wood grained dash and brown instruments.

Thanks for the replies .

From the dudes that KNOW! And in less than two hours! They've lived it and backed it up with research at the ultimate destination, the Benson Ford Research Center.

Here is the design evolution of the 35-36 30 hour string-wind clock mirror. From page 121 of The 1935-36 Ford Book.
