SG- I had a message the other day from a CS1-owning friend in Northern Ireland, asking if I knew how many of these machines were made (I refuse to call them 'cricket-bat' models - a journalistic invention from the post-war era!). I checked this out some years back but had forgotten the quite large total involved of around 1135, from late 1927 to early 1930. There were of course a few works ones also produced earlier in '27 for the TT etc. which are not listed in the records, whereas the 1928 works machines are included.
