The  tape set that came with my 'tron is marked "BBS" on each key, and  is 
really worn, so it its quite possibly an original  set. 


If the 'BBS' marking is in bold felt tip squashed capitals then they  are 
probably London produced tapes which were always out of  azimuth!  You can check 
this for certain as they have a drop out zone  between tracks whereas Streetly 
tapes blended at a constant volume, as do ours  now.  The wrong azimuth gave 
them a nasal quality that some  love.
