SHARP SP-R3U TV Searcher March 1980

A 6-page booklet for the SHARP SP-R3U from the TV Searcher series. The concept: a regular boombox with a built-in 5.5-inch black-and-white television and a decoder for the Japanese multiplex audio broadcast system. The catalog spreads cover lifestyle scenarios (watch, record, listen, sing with karaoke), a technical features spread with separate TV, RADIO and CASSETTE sections, and a rear page with full specifications and optional accessories. Output power 12W, Metal tape support, APSS. At ¥105,000 - roughly double the price of a standard Searcher boombox - the TV was the whole proposition.
