Notes:

 

It seems from the earliest record in the account books, 2/17/81, to 2/24/83 only 12x mounts were built.  Following the account books, production began on the 16x mount in 1985 (earliest record = 3/19/85) .  Just counting the records, it seems that about 22 12x mount were built and 18 16x mounts.  Some entries are ambiguous (i.e., "14.5" f/5.6 telescope with mount"); These ambiguous entries are marked: "#".
