BASF Radio?

[Telecolor 3007]

It just haves the brand put onto it. "B.A.S.F." (Badische Aniline und Soda Fabrik) made tapes and cassettes, among other chemical stuff, but they wheren't a radio company.

I think the tape recorder portion of the unit is what the BASF name is mainly being associated with, it actually looks like a very early Radio/Cassette Recorder Combo Unit from maybe the mid 1970s.

It might of been made to record audio off the radio using the cassette recorder, which if that's the case that would of been very early for a portable combo unit like this to have such a feature because it was mainly your large component units that were used with stereo receivers that did that, but not portable tape recorders with radios built into them.

In any case its a fairly rare unit I would think if its as early as I suspect it is, and is a nice unit regardless of who made it and who's name is slapped on it.
