Description:
The database indicates 1956. The woman I bought it from, who purchased it new in Torpedo-ville (Frankfurt, Germany), claimed she got it in 1958. I can't remember what I did last year, never mind 60 years, so maybe she got the year wrong.

RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Torpedo 18b on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Torpedo Serial Number page and the Torpedo 18b By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
