I've got a 5500 from 1964 and from what I've read I recall 1972 being the last date of production.
But don't quote me on it as I couldn't find the same article when I searched this morning..... |

from Philips thread point number:
6) Genuine examples were produced only from 1958 to 1967 don't know if this is chiseled in stone but seems reasonable |
