The baggage area varies depending on if and what type of D windows are installed. There is very little detailed information available to show how the factory did the various models. And they used a kind of high density cardboard all of which succumbed to moisture decades ago.
Here is a photo of the baggage compartment that resulted from my research.
more photos and commentary here and in the section titled Fuselage:

The 5th, 6th, and 7th pictures in Scott's message above show the back of the baggage compartment a couple of inches forward of the back of the headliner. Does anyone know if it was the same in '41? The back of the baggage compartment in my '41 deLuxe is attached to the same rail as the back of the headliner.

It is my understanding that the Delux had the hat shelf. It was made of the cardboard-like material.
