    Here's a new one, Amcol Boomboxes from 1983. I'm looking into Amcol, they might have owned Sankei at this time and it also looks like they had Sony Distribution Rights for Indonesia but I haven't confirmed anything yet.

    Sankei and a few other boombox brands from 1978. Remember the Promax Hair Drier? Those were hot when the dudes were blowing their hair back like John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever!

    Robinsons from 1983, with a rare sighting of an AIWA HS-J11, on of the smallest boomboxes ever made. Pricing is in Singapore Dollars.

    That shows where some of the AKAs come from.
    Fair-Mate is a brand I only recognise from Radio Scanners.
    Typing their name into Google it auto-suggested I was interested in their HP-200E scanner.
    In Europe, unless you were a Radio Ham or Scanner enthusiast, you probably would have zero knowledge of the brand.
    Stick a well known brand on the box and people would be saying things like "Grandma has one of their radios and its still working after twenty years".
