I can give you some numbers. From 1989 to 1998 out of 111 brands (mostly VCRs) that our shop took in I worked on (which doesn't mean "fix" - but at least took the top off of): 226 Toshiba; 452 Sharp; 602 GE; 1,224 Zenith and 2,758 RCA. We had quite a following of dealers and movie rental store chains (typically in smaller cities that would ship their units in) for RCA, GE and Zenith and not so much for the other brands that mostly came to us locally. |

To answer your question I can't break it out much better than that. GE's were Panasonics up until around '88, '89 when some Samsungs were thrown in (VG7500, 7515). Then, there were some IVP's (International Video Products, a venture with Toshiba VG4218 along with some TV/VCRs 13TVR60, for one) and some Daewoos thrown in here and there in the late '90's (VG4053, VG4056)... So, I guess the majority of that number were likely Panasonic built. Zenith's were JVC built until the late 80's when Goldstar units started appearing. But, I definitely can't break out how many of each without doing a LOT more research. And, that's above my pay grade. Sorry. |

What is the exact number for JVC brand only that you've seen total? Can you check your records one more time? Thanks.

What about Panasonic, Hitachi, and Mitsubishi? Can you check one final time?
I shared your numbers to Studio Sound Electronics, and he's really enjoying it, actually. :-) He asks me for Panasonic, Hitachi, and Mitsubishi as well? Thanks. |

What are the numbers for Emerson, Symphonic, and Fisher VCR brands? (Studio Sound Electronics is curious again...)
