FWIW, I had a Schneider 489 Apo Artar that was circa 1980.

Apo-Artars were featured in the Schneider ads until at least the early '90s. Have you checked the Schneider website? There's lots of information there. AFAIK the optical formula for the Artar has been the same since the Stone Age. I do know Schnieder took over Goerz in the early '70s, don't know what was in production or for how long though.
