Exactly how many that was made are hard to say, but I have some dusty factory papers. The numbers that were produced between 1950 and 1964 are 32979.
That figure includes all types B-22/PA-120, B-22U, B-22B/PA-120B, B-22C/PA-120C. They were all “B-22” but were even sold as Penta (PA-..). The B-22C/PA-120C. was different in
the lower unit as it was made in brass but cast as a modern engine and with a plastic prop. It was made between 1959 and 1962 in 1697 units.
Before 1950 we can guess at least 5000 maybe more and after 1964 the planned production on an other paper was 7200 units until 1968 and lets say 10000 between 1968 and 1979.
So totally it is about 50000 units.
And yes I have some manuals and advertisements for them.
