    I've never seen the Pyral Magnetics Brand, this is from 1977 and prices are Australian.

    Thanks Mystic, I'm trying to dig out some of the less advertised brands but I was thinking that a lot of you guys didn't see alot of this to begin with. Over here we had ads, especially for Maxell, TDK and Memorex, just about everywhere, even TV.

    TKD MA-XG but it's really an ad for Mitsubishi's Tape Deck, pretty cool! from 1991

    Loran from 1982, I've never seen one of these but there seems to be some extra features on the cassette including a higher melt point plastic used for the casing. My cassettes never melted but the sound got weird after experiencing high heat.

    One of the last major advertisers for cassettes, this was the only one in Audio Magazine in 1991, the TDK MA-XG

    Just one tape advert in the December 18 1985 Smash Hits.
    I would guess W H Smiths (a large stationers / newsagent / media shop) paid for this one.

    In December 1986 there was an actual TDK advert
