I've dug out the A1000 only to discover that I have replace Denise and 
Agnus for later chips at some point.
As that was my main machine for some time so it is possible they failed 
or I swapped them out. I did have 7 A1000's at one time, of those I only 
have three left.

FWIW Paula is an 8364 R4 week 43 1985 in that machine and I'm certain at 
least that is the original one and is certainly the oldest that I have 
found thus far.

  If I do find the the originals I will post the info.
