It was in late 1991 or 1992 that I ordered a couple of cassettes of music from Vintage Soundtrak.  One of those tapes was out of stock, so they sent me another.


Here is the order form they enclosed:


Note that you could order WITH or WITHOUT Dolby processing!

And they enclosed a very informative note on how they dubbed the music.


Following are the summary pages of their offerings.  Full of nifty info!






Boy, I wish I could go back in time and order all of those puppies!

Well, that’s about it, Super-Fans!  Tune in again for more excitement ­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­next Monday!
