One of us will have to do some research on the Mark series one of these days. Somewhere I have a 2-page magazine spread for RCA from Christmastime. It shows everything from a transistor radio up to color roundie, which is probably a -12. I think it was called a Mark 8. I have a store display for RCA color TV promoting the Mark 10. I also have an RCA 8-track player that is labeled Mark 8.

One thought is that it had to do with how many years RCA had been selling color sets, starting with '54. They might have reverted back to "8" just for the tape players.
