The only "proof" I have is I lived in those years and drove those old H's and M's thru the late 1940s and never did I see a notched throttle lever. One of the selling features of the sawtooth throttle vs the old throttle on the F series was it was "easier and more modern" to drive in every way...just pull back and go faster. First notched throttle on an H was purchased by a farmer who said his original throttle "didn't stay in place". The notched throttle fixed that problem, but the real problem was his whole throttle linkage was not set correctly...a common thing in those days with farmers who didn't care to investigate or just had a pliers for their whole tool supply.
I saw a 300 utility with the throttle knob off so the farmer just snapped on a vise grips and drove it that way for 20 yrs.
