(I suppose the Australian Stanleys had die-cast frogs from the start of production in 1964.
Cheers, Vann.[/QUOTE])
As I posted on my original reply I discovered the die cast frogs whilst working for Stanley in 1981.
They came from the Stanley takeover of Turner in the late 60s.
Here are some pics of the 3 frogs the original Pope,Turner and Stanley the only difference being the lack of the frog adjustment on the Stanley.
Look closely at the detail on the frogs, these all came out of the same die.
