Caro Daniele, do us a favour and try to hold yourself back for a moment each time before you send off, only as briefly As the Day Shines.

Auricon were professional equipment. Amateurs, if they were out for a synch sound film, would record audio on magnetic tape rather than optically. In 1957 was already recession, I can google that within a minute. The money wasn’t everywhere at hand.

But thanks anyway for the lush scan

Well, too late to change the title. This was an ad in an amateur publication. So, it was directed towards amateurs as well as professionals.

Do you have any literature from Auricon, Simon? If so, scan it and upload to the I.A.

I have only this excerpt from Telecasting, February 6th, 1950. $2,860 would be $36,600 today.
