'Circa 75' advertising

Doing a bit of searching on the internet today, I came across an advertising image.  So, as I often do, I got sucked into google for quite a while looking for additional ads.  Here are a couple of the ads that I came across.



Advertisement for a 'Circa 75' model 701.

Ad for a 'Circa 75' model 703.  Note the am/fm tuner dial is half red and half black.  Some of the amp/tuner am/fm dials were set up like this.  The dial on my 703 is only one color :-( but the various controls are silver and are much more aesthetically arranged and aligned.  I'm not sure at this point which tuner is original to the 703 model.  If anyone knows, please email me!  
An ad stating the list price of the 'Circa 75' model 703 as $499.95 US in 1969.  Dealer cost is given as $365.55.
An ad from (I believe) 1966-67 touting the attributes of the 'Circa 75' concept.  Internet before there was internet?

  2. I have the one in the ad third from the top. It's in great shape, but my brother wants to take it to the dump.

  3. Yikes! Don't let him! I'm sure a great many of these older stereos have suffered a similar fate because of our notions of disposability. Which one do you have, Tara, the round one or the shelf-type?

  4. Any idea of the year of the top ad for the 701 series? the picture looks exactly like the 701 I own and I am trying to figure out the year mine was made.
