That plant opened in 1971 and they only built TV's for the Canadian market there. I don't know if Matsushita took over that plant right away or not when they completed the purchase of the consumer division in May of '74. Do you have the exact model and serial number from the back tag on this set?
Yep, it was built in Markham, Ont.

there are a lot of numbers at the back of the set...let's see :

- HY644914
- 68P72601A21
-47H31YWU9314NK

It would be logical that the canadian branch was included in the deal, so I assume that by may 74, Quasar was panasonic in canada also.
