The 1420  held down the baseline of Sears amplifiers 
into the early 70s. It was the lowest powered, the smallest speaker, but still 
held on the little bit of cool of a tube-powered amplifier. It looked very 
similar to the first 'tombstone,' the 1459.
Introduced:

Sears trotted out the 1420 number as the prefix for its low end amps well into 
the 1980s!
