Here's a link to an excellent 1958 BSA promo film. Plenty about A10's from drop forging cranks through assembly and test. Not all A10 but a real good watch. The first 2-3 mins are slow but keep with it!

Good one mate. Just watched it, man what I would give for a pair of those ring compressors. Didn't know they still made plungers in '58.
