I just picked up an Olympus 2001 Product Brochure at a local swap meet, and found the following "interesting" lens listed for the OM series:
Zuiko 85mm f3.5
Zuiko Macro 90mm f3.5
Zuiko 100mm f3.5
Zuiko 200mm f3.5
Zuiko 300mm f2.8
Zuiko 400mm f2.8
Zuiko Reflex 500mm f2.8
Zuiko 600mm f1.2
Zuiko 1000mm f1.8

perhaps a brochure from the secret Wyoming factory??? The back cover does note "Some products may not be available in all areas"

(actually, what it looks like is a fairly major assembly error in the artwork - the lenses are listed in two columns, and the f/numbers from the left hand column got copied to the right hand column creating these interesting descriptions! Guess the OM system was close enough to its demise to not require serious proof reading of the copy - though it got the first two pages....)
