Cassettes Audio & Vidéos

Audio and video cassettes have revolutionized the way we consume and share audiovisual content. Invented in 1963 by Lou Ottens for Philips, the audio cassette enabled the creation of personalized mixtapes, becoming a cultural symbol of the 70s-80s. The VHS format, launched by JVC in 1976, transformed home viewing and popularized video rental stores. Although largely replaced by digital formats, these technologies are experiencing a nostalgic resurgence. This collection, rich in 1300 references, testifies to the fascinating evolution of these media, from the earliest models of 1937 to more recent editions, illustrating their lasting impact on our audiovisual culture.
