Thanks for purchasing the GPO 9401
Cassette Player. You are now the proud
owner of a classic piece of British design – a
portable radio and cassette player. It’s time
to dust off your old cassettes, or to buy a
blank tape or two to start recording your
favourite songs from the radio. It’s listening
enjoyment the way it always used to be.
