Memovox Paris Exhibition: The First Memovoxes

Let's start from the beginning, and have a look at the first Memovoxes, which were manual winding. A detail makes all the difference, between the very first Memovox, the Ref 3150, and all the other which came later: The shape of the lugs. As you will see
