I've never seen one either. I was fascinated by the 16 speed on my 1972 Christmas present Dansette Bermuda that was roughly 10 years old at the time. I bothered the local record shops and radio / TV repair businesses and none of them had ever seen a 16 record.
Indeed, I've never come across one at any jumble sale, car boot sale or radio related sale since.
