PRESTO History on the web

A spot for keeping track of especially cool (informative, fun) videos, photos, scans and other links about record cutting. (You can post them in other sections. Eventually they may end up here.) NOTE: Please put *Circuits, Schematics and Manuals* in the section with that name.

HI Trolls: The Presto History web site has moved to a new location. It can now be accessed
at http://www.prestohistory.com
If you have not visited, it contains a narrative on the history of the Presto Recording Company,
pictures and information on most of their disc and tape recorders and amplifiers.

It's been one of our most crucial references since this site started. Thank you, prestofan!!


The site used to be at http://www.televar.com/grshome/Presto.html, in case anyone ever needs this info for a "wayback machine" search. I've updated most of the links throughout this site to the new site.

This seems to be your best bet for now.

A tip of the hat to the late, great Alan Graves, aka Prestofan.

Amazing! Thanks EpicenterBryan!
