Fane Speaker identification?

I'm hoping someone can help me identify this Fane speaker:

Specifically, I'm hoping to find out its power handling capacity. There is no sticker on the side with watts/gauss/etc.

This is what's printed on the speaker:

Frame code: 125135

Date code: 4479

Cone code: 276

Rated at 8 ohms (as labeled on small green sticker).

I acquired this speaker with the hopes of using it in my SA112. Just don't know if it can handle the 50w output of the SA112.

So far, it sounds worlds better than the Mesa Black Shadow (Celestion 90 watter) that came in my amp. The Fane has a much smoother sound - less jarring and more useable volume. I'd just hate to blow it up if this speaker doesn't have high enough power handling capacity.

Any advice is much appreciated.

it isn't a HIWATT Fane,
it is at most rated for 75 watts. probably 50.
