In fact we see no other J frame models, Bodyguard, and Cent or BG Airweights in Baby J versions either.
And only a very few Baby Chiefs Airweights.

It's interesting to note the Centnnials came out nearly two years before the last Baby Chiefs shipped and before the first, longer grip frrame Model of 1953 Chiefs were shipped in mid 1954.
I've wondered if the company made scores and scores of Baby Chiefs frames before it enlarged the grip frame for the Centennials. Then, being known for never wasting anything it had to sell the Baby Chiefs before changing to the Model of 1953 for the Chiefs.
