Ummmm Rose, I have about 1,000 of the 1x4x2 windows (90% red, 10% white), these
are about 1/2 from Europe, 1/2 from the USA. These go back to the earliest
varieties from 1957 all the way to the most recent. And I don't have a single
one that does what you describe? Did someone modify one?? Does your window
have the 'prongs' in the bottom of the window to allow it to attach to brick
studs?
Or are you describing the 1x4x3 window??? Those have all the features that you
describe...
