My first VCR was a Sharp mono VHS unit that was a birthday gift around 1996 IIRC. It could sort of be called my second one though since the one that I unwrapped (a different make model) ate a rented library tape right out of the box....It got returned for the Sharp. I still have that sharp VCR, and last time I ran it a few years ago it was still working good....
The folks did have a VCR for a good part of my child hood, but once I got a garage sale 80's Emerson for my room I wanted a VCR for it.
