Philips EL3302 & (A) how many variants?
Have 3 different EL3302s but now wonder the chronoligical date order.
They all are slighly different but one 3302A/15G has a window but the other 3302A/15P is obviously later as has an all perspex cassette window. I can date only one by it's motor dated 1968, 3302/00G. I now wonder how many variants Philips brought out of this machine? Seems a lot more than I ever thought.

Re: Philips EL3302 & (A) how many variants?
I only have one of them now, but 25 years ago I had quite a collection - maybe about 10 of them (yes, really).
They vary depending on when they were made, but also where. I even had one made in South America - Argentina, I think. The plastic body was much rougher than the european versions. I reckon they are a bit like the VW Beetle - only the name stayed the same over the years! Paul |
