Must have been a lot of profits in cassette sales at the time for them to be advertised on prime time TV let alone the cost of making the advert.
Still brilliant & can't will see what the grand kids make of it next time they visit.

I used to like them, with Derek Guyler as the voice of the Skeleton. I wonder when they last honoured their lifetime guarantee? |
When Scotch/3M ceased production of VHS video cassettes they reached a deal with BASF to honour the warranty. I am unsure if this passed onto EMTEC though. BASF would have honoured the warranty until 2002 at least, when their involvement with the domestic magnetic media ceased and the EMTEC spin-off was completed.
Though to be fair, I don't think I ever saw a single VHS cassette which faded away. I've got some 40 years old now. |
Thanks for filling me in, I've still got some old tapes that play well.
