Maybe someone can help you date your Orange Amplifier?

Hi everyone.
I'd be grateful if someone could give me some informations about my Orange OR120 head please. In the back of the head, I can find two serial numbers. The first on the black plate written 'Orange London Amplifier' is #5128. The second one near the preamp output is #11812. Here are two pictures I took of the head. Thank you in advance.

Go with the serial number on the chassis. The one on the case may not be original.
Is there an address on the badge on the case? Orange Amps London, .......?

Check out the inside, I've done the same to clean the amp and I found a handwritten label inside mine with the date when it went through QC.

By looking at it, I would think it's also a mid 70s.
