1974 Singer PR-1 B/W Portapack VTR

.
        Here is a Singer PR-1. Now you know as much about it as I do. However, I recognize this as none other than the JVC PV-4500 EIAJ BW portable VTR. The spec's are as follows:
        This was JVC's answer to Sony's AV-3400 Video Rover system. This is the finest of all the portapack systems in this class too. EIAJ format, five inch reels of half inch tape give 30 minutes recording time. The large PBP-1 lead acid battery gives one hour running time on a full charge. Not shown is a toaster size AC power adapter and battery charger. Picture and sound quality border on excellent!
        This Singer PR-1 is in non operational condition and is missing the camera and any other accessories.
