Conion c-100f yellow label sticker thing

[Jack_Dowdy]

I've seen these yellow band label things on some pictures of a mint Conion. I have no idea what it is but I would really like one for my Conion. This one is a Clairtone but the one I want says Conion on it. If anyone knows where I could find one or at the very least what one of these is called, that would be totally awesome. Thank you.

I would be interested to know if these actually came with those on them when new from a historical point of view.

They did, Ryan! They also came with a cardboard insert for the lower deck that had a pic of a cassette on it.

The only one I know of is the Conion version on Howie's Grail C100F (thread)
He got a quote from a place that die-cuts stuff like that and they wanted way too much.

Scanning it was going to be pricy due to its size. He asked a friend to re-create the graphics by hand, but that never happened and honestly probably wouldn't have captured the original as well as an actual scan.

I got some good pics of it while at the Vegas meet ten years ago (has it really been that long? Yeesh) but to accurately reproduce it, including all the weird angled edges, you'd need to have one in your hands to get right.

I didn’t know it came with a cardboard insert. Do you have a pic of what it looked like I kinda want to see one

 

[caution]

No but if you zoom into the first pic on Howie's thread you can see it inside the deck

Yes

Ohhhh that makes so much sense now, I’ve always seen Conion pics with Reel to Reel tapes in em, never realized that it came with one. You learn something new every day huh.

Well, it came with a fake reel cassette made of cardboard, but it did come with an actual cassette also

Ooo that’s cool.
