Nope...Simula circa 1962. Smalltalk was '72 as I recall.
I don't recall Modula-2 being OO...?
Depends on how much you torture the definition, but really it's just got a
few OO features.

What about Modula-3?
My favorite language has always been Standard-ML.

Never heard of it until you mentioned it. The wikipedia page starts
off by saying "modula-3 is a now little-used programming language..."

SML is nice, but it falls down in the real world when you need to
interact with stuff that isn't written in SML. Maybe things have
changed since I learned it ca. 1990, but back then it was an ivory
tower theoretician's wet dream and a pragmatic programmer's nightmare.

Also now little-used, but I do have an old PC that runs it as the
operating system. It would be cool to find a Ceres 3 workstation,
but that's a bit unlikely.

Doesn't the above essentially apply to VB6 also?

Wasn't there a later version of Simula suffixed by
-67? So if I wanted to play around with some of this
stuph, can I be reasonably certain ALL of these older
languages could be had for a peecee? Don't worry, I
don't mean a Tandy 2000.
