So cal 265 was made earliest from 1950 according to that site? I searched around before and I thought it was made from 1949?

Yes, the cal 265 was first introduced in 1949 according to A Journey Through Time.

Where in the article does it say that the 265 was made earliest in 1950?

From the site you linked: But I heard about 1949 regarding to cal 265 before so I guess that site is just a estimate.

11,000,000 – 11,999,999

1947

12,000,000 – 12,999,999

1950

The cal 265 was used for many years. 1949 was just when it was introduced. You can very we’ll have a cal 265 Omega from 1950.

Ok then I know when it was introduced at least 😀 That site made me confused and thought they meant it was introduced 1950. But I really want to know if it's from 1949 or 1952 as an example.

Then you know what to wish for for Christmas 😉
It is likely from 50 or 51 but the extract is the only way to know for certain.
