I have recently bought a frame with these dropouts minus the eyelets, its got a 1" extended headtube which is unusual and I found a web page with the original sale of the bike and the seller states he purchased it in 1988...... but, he also states 'the original M737 XT groupset', you may understand my 6 year confusion so, what year did these first appear please.

I would guess late 80s but they have been used for many years by many different manufacturers. Posting some photos of the actual bike will help with dating more...
