I believe that the Gran Sport of the same era--which was the next model up from the Super Course--also used stamped dropouts, except for a couple of years around 1970, when I've heard (though whether correctly or not I can't say) that they used forged Zeus dropouts. As far as I know, the Gran Sport frames were full db Reynolds frames, including Reynolds forks and stays. That would seem to be an exception to the "rule" that stamped dropouts indicate hi-ten forks and/or stays.
Unless I'm wrong about the Gran Sport tubing. It's possible--wouldn't even be the first thing I've been wrong about today.
