Sturmey Archer Gear Levers

[shadaboot27]

My 1952 Rudge path finder is missing it's original Sturmey Archer 4 speed gear lever and I am trying to find a replacement. Now over the years SA have made many different levers with slight variations. I want to know if there is any info online about what all the different ones there are and what years they used each one? I want to have an exact replacement of the original one it had, I just need to figure out which one it was.

Now the closest Rudge catalog online is the 1956 one, and you can see the lever on that, it has the two small red squares on it, as you can see i found an image of one of those on google, but i don't know if this lever was around in 1952 or not?

Wow thanks! This is literally EXACTLY what I was looking for! This confirms that the trigger that I pictured above would of been the wrong one to get for my 52 Rudge. I now know exactly what i need, AND I can't believe my luck because I just bought a stunningly good condition one on eBay with the original cable too!
