Yes indeed and consider for a minute that the 202 sold only 271 units from 1927 through to 1931! That is LOW volume by any mass-production standards.

Speaking of the No 4 Soundbox, it seems to have been the brianchild of Harry O Sooy, one of the three Sooy brothers who were the main recording technicians at Victor. If you check out his memoirs...http://www.davidsarnoff.org/sooyh-maintext1921.html

and start reading at February 13th, you'll get the saga of the Number 4 in the context of the transition to electrical recording. It's interesting to read that he had designed the box in 1915.

Make that Feb. 13, 1925, about ⅔ to ¾ down that l-o-o-n-g page. Took me a few tries to arrive at the very spot.

Well you know what they say...it's not the destination but the journey that's important.

Mmm, I'll try to remember that next time I head to the beer store, but I don't think it's gonna work.
