I too thought the 375 castle was the last set with the 1x1x1 windows, but then I
remembered that there was a parts pack (in the lugnet database) #836, which came out
in 1982, and had the large modern (4 lights) door, the 70's 1x3x4 door, the modern
1x4x3 window with panes and green shutters, and classic windows 1x1x1, 1x1x2, 1x2x1,
1x2x2, 1x3x2 and 1x4x2. These are of course red windows. I am not sure how long
this parts pack was available, but I think it was around at least until 1985. So
the small and medium classic windows were available until the mid 1980's. I
remember buying some of these, but I thought that they (like the parts packs today)
were top heavy in doors.
