I have a Swarovski 7x30 SLcompact [SLC] non phase coated and still have the catalog I bought it from and they show just the 1-traditional Swarovski porro,2-the SL series porro, 3- the 7x30 & 8x30 SLcompact [SLC] roof prism series and there are no full size SLC series roofs. I am not sure of when the full size roof prism where made by Swarovski and I wish I had added a date to my catalog when I first received it. I have attached a picture of what my box that my 7x30 SLC came in looked like and Swarovski was still using this box in 1991 when the fellow that bought his 8x30 SLC and then sold it  in August of this year.This fellow kindly left me use his picture from his ad and also sent me a  Swarovski catalog dated Edition 4/ April 88. This catalog only shows the SL, traditional and  7x30SLC and the 8x30 WA SLC in it, no full size SLC models at all.Regards,Steve</blockquote>
