    Let's do it, let's add GE!

    General Electric 3-6055 from 1985, I think Reli says this is an AKA with different speakers. it really looks impressive for 1985, most equipment was plastic junk around this time.

    I don't have a lot of GE Boomboxes but they seem to be better than normal, here's one for 1985. I may have posted this before but I can't find the file.

    No Cassette tape yet. The unit on the right is a portable reel to reel tape recorder that will even operate off batteries.

    Early 1969 ad for the GE M8400, I'm sure this was pretty exciting at the time to have it bundled with Berlitz.

    Generel Electric 3-6025 from 1985, I would have guessed this was from much earlier in the 80's. these are nicely built, fairly heavy, tiny boomers.
