What was the first year that the CGA was introduced? How about the Propane version?

Judging by this catalog, it could of been 1977/78 for the CGA

So, why would they exist in single screw form with no date stamp on the vents?

That's a sweet CGA Bob, That's the oldest one I've seen
I think I have the answer to the question of when the GGA was released
Here's a pic out of the 1981 catalog, but his wardrobes lost that 70's style
Are those chickens or quails on the GGA ???
