What do you mean with "Windows Latin-1"? Latin-1=iso-8859-1 or
Windows Codepage 1252 (M$ extension to iso-8859-1), see

Your header says Emacs/21.3.50, i.e. CVS version (!= Emacs 21.3
release). After (require 'code-pages) (not "codepages" without the
"-"), Emacs/21.3.50 provides a windows-1252 coding system:
,----[ C-h C windows-1252 RET ]
| * -- windows-1252 (alias: cp1252)
|
| windows-1252 encoding
|
| Type: 4 (do conversion by CCL program)
| EOL type: Automatic selection from:
| [windows-1252-unix windows-1252-dos windows-1252-mac]
