I found a brochure that refers to a "Black Knight" Agri King demonstration. Here's a few pages from the brochure including front and back covers.The back cover has form No. A71072A on it.

NICK thats great, you made my day. Its good to know thats a description J I Case used and not just a nickname of sorts that became popular. After 40 yrs its tough for any of us to remember the exact details. Thanks, Rod.

The Case publication that you have posted A71072A was printed in 1972 to promote a winter sale in Feb of that year. All Case publications have the date (last two didgits) in the Form number. Examples 730/830 lit. Form # A43667K-2 produced in 1967. 1470 lit. Form # A62071C printed in 1971.
It is interesting that they refered to the BK, as there was never a 1175, 1270, or 1370 BK produced to my knoledge. The one picured in the flyer was a 1070 and they were talking about the new bigger tractors, two of which did not have 2spd PTOs that they refer to also.

The BK pic is funny. It says 1070 but looks to have the 1170 muffler, dual steering cyl. axle and that is a turbocharged exhaust manifold. But it has bar axles!?

Probably because it is not a 1070 but an 1170.
I have the same literature (Canadian version) and in mine that same picture clearly shows the tractor to be an 1170. And I only see one reference to the term "Black Knight". Most of the other ads have it listed as "Golden Opportunity Demonstrator" or Golden Demo for short.
