<p>[QUOTE="Miscstuff, post: 297140, member: 1331"]I think I might have nailed it. Looks like it is what is know as a "lucky rooster" and applies to the Chinese Zodiac. This year 28Jan2017-15Feb2018 is the year of the "Fire Rooster" and given the age of the cabling and switch the previous rooster dates of 1958,1969 and 1981 are the most likely dates of manufacture. Probably 1969 or 1981 would be my best guess. Funny how you can go down an antique rabbit hole and come out in an unexpected spot. Could still be in the hole.<font face="Georgia"><i><b><b><span style="color: rgb(179, 89, 0)"><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /></span></b></b></i></font></p><p>Cheers</p><p>Stephen</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]96856[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
