Dansette Transistor Radios

Dansette transistor radios were manufactured by Dansette Products Ltd. in England. The company was founded by Morris Margolin, a Russian immigrant. Its first product was a turntable that plugged into a radio to make a kind of radio phonograph. In 1952 the company (run by successive generations of the Margolin family) began marketing what would become its most famous and successful product, the Dansette, a portable record player with a built-in speaker and an autochanger that allowed several records to be loaded at once and played in succession. A least one million Dansettes were sold in the 1950s and 1960s. Transistor radios were added to the product line as well as a car radio, but the record player remained the star seller. By 1970 the market for record players began drying up and the company eventually went into liquidation.
