Scuba history... US Divers 1970-1975

[Scubaroo]

Does anyone here have an old US Divers catalog from 1970 to 1975? PM me if you do please - I want to ask a question!

(no I'm not in the market for a catalog)

I'm interested in seeing a picture of an old yolk manifold from this period - particularly a US Divers, between those two dates. The old style with a single yoke connection, and sometimes a J valve on one post.

I don't have a catalog, but I have one of the manifolds

what were you looking for?
(I collect old u.s. divers stuff)

Looking for an authentic US Divers manifold to mount a double hose reg on... just a project I'm working on as a display piece. I always see the manifolds on eBay dirt cheap (the regulator is the expensive item), but without a reference, I'm not sure which ones (metal knob/rubber knob, etc) are from the 1970-1975 period, same period as the Royal Aqua-Master regs. Ideally a 1974 model, because that's when I was born.

Are there any pics you could post/email?

I'm thinking that some of the socks in my drawer are OLDER than that! Man, I suddenly feel like a VERY OLD guy!

I can take a couple of pics this weekend, I'll double check the production dates, but I think the j valve one is a 74. These ones have a hard rubber-type (bakelite?) knob.
cool project BTW
