I'm the Wiz, and nobody beats me!
I'm pretty sure Islands date is accurate. I've also seen those on a few 1960 models. Something was going on with SA during this time since the Austrian 3 speed hub was very common in 1959.
1958 Schwinn Reporter:
"Sturmey-Archer SW hubs will not be available after 10/24/58. Models which used this hub will have Schwinn Approved hubs installed instead. The SW will be available again on 1/1/59."
The availability date may have been pushed to a later date for some reason.
