Own a Vintage Citroen Tape Recorder!

This is pretty cool.  We came across it on ebay.   A Citroen tape recorder located in Nanimo, British Columbia!   Circa mid 1960’s and made in Los Angeles California.   Obviously not made by the Citroën car company, but a very neat compact tape tape recorder nonetheless.

A search on the radio museum website indicates that the company only made this model, the 660, and there is no indication how many were made.  We’d bet very few.

A further search of Google brought up an ad in Popular Science magazine – Feb 1963 with specs and and an address for Citroen Electronics Corporation: 729 N. Highland Ave., Los Angeles.
