Was perusing some old Radio Shack catalogs over at radioshackcatalogs.com and found this in the 1949 catalog.

I wish Radio Shack still sells good audio equipments. Too bad they are too busy trying to compete with bigger retailers by selling smartphones and stuffs these days...

Yeah, Radio Shack is just a shadow of its former self.

As s side note, back in 1957, the catalog included Ampex 350 professional tape recorders. A two track model sold for $1,953. That's about $16,000 in 2013 dollars.
