Sorry to cut your reign so short, but this is my "15 minutes" opportunity, until Dr.Hiwatt trounces us both
.
Off the top of my head, I've got:
4 x cast frame 122231's from around '71 in a rear-loaded cab
4 x stamped frame 122142's from '80 in a front-loaded cab
1 x cast frame 122918 from '80 (the latest cast frame I'm aware of) in my SA112
4 x stamped frame 125114's from '76 in a rear-loaded cab
2 x stamped frame 125161's from '78
2 x cast frame 122142's (can't recall date) destined for my SA212 restoration
1 x cast frame 122231 (can't recall date)
non-Hiwatt Fanes:
2 x stamped frame 12557 blue label from '77
4 x cast frame 122190 Sound City from '72
...and...(drum roll please)......a stamped frame Medusa (with large glob of glue on cone rip)...mid 80's
I think that's all, but will edit this post if I remember more.

Yes - we HAVE a WINNER (and he lives in Hiwatt Valley)!
