That would be pretty amazing if that's an original follower. As I'm sure you're aware, the first full-size .40's came out in 1990 and yours is clearly one of the first. It has always been my understanding that the 11-round .40 magazines used yellow followers for at least the first 3 or 4 years with the swapover to blue occurring in either 1993 or early-1994.
But then again, I'm old and I've been known to be wrong before.
