RE: Something To Ponder.....

Greetings All, We've all discussed theMellotron's history and origins often here. Its inspiration from theChamberlin, etc. The contemplated name "Franson" , instead of Mellotron at the very beginnings. Please see included photo with this message. I've included the MK-II Mellotron waterslide decal atop a paper label from a 1927 USA tube/valve manufacturer in the Golden Days of early radio . Resemblance is uncanny and TOO close for coincidence ! ...Something to research, perhaps ?? Your input from all sources is heartily invited. Cheers, -JK- [Image]
