60's system - which Empire cartridge?

Hopefully one of you older Inmates or one deep into vintage can help me out.

In 1966 I ordered my first stereo system from one of the East Coast discount houses - Dynakits, AR-4s, and Dual 1009 with an Empire cartridge. That was a time when many stores offered turntables with only a penny more for the cartridge, so they were package deals. So does anyone remember which Empire cartridge most likely would have been sold with the Dual at that time?

It is just a curiosity now but would be fun to know. Thanks.
