Default Re: Did Brimar ever make any transistors?

I wonder if those ones listed in the Brimar manual [whose existence I was until now oblivious to] were ever made/sold in significant quantities or whether they were just test/experimental devices that emerged from the Ilminster research labs and were listed in the manual simply to show that Brimar were working on transistors?

[such things are not unusual: on a couple of occasions I called a manufacturer to ask about price/delivery on a part that was newly listed in their latest catalog only to be told "just because it's in the catalog doesn't mean we're actually committed to making it!"]
