Sony Walkman Cassette

It's a Sony Walkman Cassette!

This is a pure novelty if there was ever one. A cassette designed for the Walkman user,
with Quick Access leader tape being 3 seconds, funky J Card, and great graphics.

With super-cool graphics on a screwless shell mould Sony used for a lot
of their tapes back then it was certainly striking to look at.

It even had it's own custom labels in pale green!

The J Card is arty and totally unique!

Well it looks fantastic, but how does it sound? Bloody good, really bloody good.
I recorded Mike Oldfield's Platinum CD to this and it blew me away in the D6C.
This begs the question, what were they loaded with? HF, HF-S or HF-ES?

All boxed up and ready to go!

The super sexy Type II offered 100 minutes!
