Record on steel wire
Released in 1949 using WWII technology, the Electronic Memory model recorded on steel wire and made it possible for people to experiment with audio recording at home—marketed as a means to capture programs, music, speech, family events, and home movies. Features include tone control, automatic stops, a record/listen switch, elapsed time indicator, expanded tonal range, and more, all contained in a portable vintage case. Experiment with wire recordings for a unique kind of magnetic audio output.
Fun fact: The heyday of wire recording lasted only about 3 years—between 1949 to 1952—before magnetic tape overtook the market.
