Since his heads can still be purchased, does that mean that Mr. Wenzler (Larry?) is still alive and head of the company? If so, could you get the answers from him?

Try contacting Paul Spotts performance, as he may be able to atleast answer your question as to when they first became available.

Off the top of my head I seem to recall the mid to late 80s.
