Default Re - Archive of tapes - Reel to Reel and Cassette.

These are some of my dad's old tapes:
(a) everyone has to have one of these, BASF LGS35!
(b) Overture, which had an oddball centre cine hub
(c) Teletape - he has a lot of these, apparently he got some sent over from the UK, the story he had was that it was ex-BBC bulk erased tape but I'd take that with a grain of salt!
(d) Zonatape - the first two reels he bought when buying his second-hand Ferrograph in the early 60's, this brand went on to become Zonal
(e) Some of the last tape be bought before switching to cassette, good old Maxell UD 35-90B.

He also has some late 70's Scotch and BASF (in the plastic box), but that hasn't made it out here yet, plus one of the next box (silver) of Maxell which was the last tape he bought before switching to cassette (urgh!).
