Here's some scans I thought you guys might like, they come from a 1983 home shopping catologue, I think it was John Mills but I can't remember for sure and it's back in the loft now, anyway enjoy...

Very cool ! I really like the Amstrad with the turntable, i remember seeing one for sale on Epay ages ago but havent seen one for a while !

The Sharps are my favorite here. I have a GF-450 that is mint in the box and it is fantastic to see an original catalogue add for one.
Thanks heaps for sharing

That catalog takes me back. Thanks !
Nice example of classic audio gear.

beautiful

Thats kool..we used to have that same catalogue in about 1982/3,i used to gaze at the exact page wanting all those stereo`s..i`ve had most of them..still got some off that page,the bush with detachable speakers,sharp GF7500,sharp Gf9500,Amstrad with the walkman,and the big Philips twin cassette..

Oh, nice one.
A real trip down memory lane here.
Exactly the sort of catalog my brother & i would spend ages pouring over, dreaming.

...Amstrad, Bush, Binatone, all the top brands how little we knew.

That Sharp GF-7500 is nice looking - as is the Toshiba walkman! Thanks for sharing these with us, Rich!

Phenomonal scans Rich_UK!! Thanks very much!

You're welcome! I haven't been on much for quite a while, but this place has been useful plenty of times in the past, about time I gave something back

These are great, thanks!

Nice scans and what a trip down memory lane!

'It tapes tapes' I remember that and thinking what a cool feature!

Spinney tronic I'd forgotten all about that brand haha! Like 'Van Der Molen' another one (hifi) they used to sell in those catalogues!
The Sharp 9500 looks so cool!

The catalogue I remember most was 'John Moores'

Hi Andy, they're not web pages, I scanned some pages from an old catalogue, and posted the images here. If you want the images just right click each one and save them

Great scans .

The Philips in the last scan has 25 pushbuttons, 10 potis, 2 selectors and 1 slider .

Wish i could just call bush and order one .

I like the chick riding the bike in high heels! Classic 80's!
