As mentioned in the wiki, the "standard" dates to 1969. The interface dates to (at least) 1962.
No, it says RS-232-C dates to 1969. The C revision was at least the 3rd (probably the 4th, as they likely did not start with RS-232-A). It is very probable that an earlier revision existed in 1962.
I have no proof, but once read that the earlier revisions did not fully specify the connector, only that it have 25 pins, and that the Cannon DB-25 just became the convention and only later was put in the standard.
