Well I would date it to 55 years plus, but that just dates the cable could have been done in 1975 with some old stock cable:D
 
It is not likely to be old cabling used many later but I know of some lighting cabling in a house I dwell in which has been done in black and red within the last 12 months, the scandal of it:D
